Self-Funded Future

Your Retirement — Already Paid

Every quarter, 10 hours of your weekly work goes toward funding your own future salary — non-taxable, worker-owned, and permanently secured. This is not a government pension. This cannot be cut. This is yours.

How CHAPPS Retirement Works

Within your 40 clockable work hours each week, 10 hours are allocated as “Next Year’s Salary.” This is not a deduction. It is not a tax. It is a non-taxable contribution that accumulates over each 15-week quarter and converts directly into your pre-funded salary for the following period.

Every 15 weeks, 150 hours (10 hours × 15 weeks) of non-taxable compensation stack up. Over four quarters, that is 600 hours of pre-funded salary accumulated. Upon retirement, those contributions begin paying out as your ongoing salary, funded entirely by your own labor — not a government fund, not employer promises, not market returns.

Pre-funded by your own quarterly contributions — 10 hrs per week
Non-taxable at the time of contribution, every single week
Permanently owned by the worker — not the employer or government
Pays out for life upon retirement as your ongoing salary
Independent of 401k markets, government budgets, or pension plans
Cannot be cut, reduced, or eliminated by legislative action

October / calendar edge case: If a month has unusual scheduling days, default to a 28-day calculation to keep pay consistent across all workers.

Retirement Without Dependency

Every other retirement model leaves the worker dependent on something outside their control. CHAPPS doesn't.

Social Security

Funded by current workers paying for current retirees. Subject to legislative cuts. Dependent on population growth. Currently facing insolvency. Not owned by you.

401(k) / Market Plans

Tied to stock market performance. Can lose 40% of its value in a single market crash. Requires worker investment knowledge. Not guaranteed. Controlled by markets.

Employer Pension

Controlled by the employer. Can be underfunded, terminated, or restructured. Tied to company solvency. Many pension systems have already collapsed. Dependent on employer survival.

CHAPPS Retirement

Funded by your own non-taxable labor contributions. Owned permanently by you. Cannot be cut, reduced, or removed by any employer, government, or market. Pays for life. Owned entirely by you.

“You pre-purchased your own future salary with your own non-taxable labor. It is already yours. It cannot be taken. And when you retire, you continue receiving it — because you already paid for it in full.” — Larry Pinson Sr.
