That's what I imagine happening too. $1K a month sounds great until inflation renders it equivalent to $100 a month. Perhaps it could be adjusted for inflation in some way.

I'd hope you'd tie it to inflation, but that only helps so much if the rate of inflation it's tied to is even slightly "off" (say, by a tenth of a percent), and then you compound it annually...
