These workers gradually pay into a pension fund as they work, however their future pension reward is typically greater than the value invested by the plan participant.

Pension benefits are supposed to be collected if and only if the worker has retired, yet there exists numerous cases of abuse of the pension system nationwide. Various workers (such as Police Officers) have been known to serve long enough to become eligible for a pension, quit their job, and then begin working elsewhere while simultaneously reaping the rewards of their pension plan.
