While I have no direct link to answer the truthfulness of the information specifically regarding Wagoner's possible pension, ...it surely should be no surprise to anyone that CEO's/boards are doing this.
Here's a link to an article: http://moneycentral.msn.com/content/P119362.asp
...and another from Time: (although now you have to pay $1.99 to read the full online article. It's from the October issue of Time magazine, ...get a copy it's worth reading.)

(as to avoid the questions, ...read the article(s), ...come to your own conclusions, I'm simply offering a source for a related topic)
...to add, ...I work for IBM. I'm not going to dig for the specific weblinks/sources, ...but trust me, ...when Lou Gerstner left IBM he did so with a very lucrative pension, stock options, etc. All at a time (when employees like myself) lost the old pension, ...and may never see any healthcare benefits. I understand when businesses have tough times, they have to make cuts, ...but for CEO's to walk off with millions, ...while the 'regular' employees are losing pensions etc., ...it's just not right.
...just my 2 cents :AH-HA_wink:
