Estimates for education only, before tax. Figures are in today's dollars; with inflation above 0, the pension and supplement lose buying power until COLAs apply, and Social Security keeps pace. The supplement is estimated as your age-62 Social Security figure × FERS years ÷ 40; OPM's figure uses FERS-covered earnings and can differ. Social Security factors assume a full retirement age of 67. Not affiliated with OPM, the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board, or any government agency. Jeremy Johnson · Stream Income Group.
