I'm certainly not a "union guy", even though I was a member of 2 for 25+ years. If I were in the private sector I would have the same view towards unions as many. On the flip side, I'm retired at 45 and my family is protected because of the union mumbo jumbo.
I am sure you took your risks and it payed off well for you. Nice to be retired at 45! I will work for at least 6 months after I die.

Being able to collect a retirement pay for possibly 40 years seems to be the reason Greece is bankrupt and tax payers are turning against government unions.
