Over 30 years of retirement, Wilson would collect as much as $607,442, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Metro East Sun.
The projection assumes Wilson received $12,768 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Wilson will have already received $53,417 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
