DEPOSITION OF MELVIN THOMAS JONES - 11/11/2005
1 the two offsets -- or maybe not explained, but directed
2 you to them. Is that better?
3 A Yeah. I asked -- well, she pointed them out,
4 and then I was concerned about it. But she did not
5 explain exactly what they were, and I'm not really sure if
6 she even knew, to tell you the truth.
7 O Going back to that meeting -- let's just go back
8 to the meeting, period. How's that? I won't characterize
9 it.
1O A Okay.
11 O Going back to the meeting, was it your
12 understanding that there would be an offset for the
13 secured benefit account if you had kept the account for
14 yourself, and the issue you had was that it was too high?
15 Or did you just not think there should have been any
16 offset? _
17 And I'm focusing on the secured benefit account
18 part of it. We'll talk about Social Security in a minute.
19 Okay?
2O A Okay. Can you repeat that again?
21 O I think I might be able to handle it.
22 A Okay. S
23 O You indicated that at that time you believed
24 that there was a problem in the way your pension was being
25 calculated. Correct?
