Over 30 years of retirement, Harner would collect as much as $272,321, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Metro East Sun.
The projection assumes Harner received $5,724 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Harner will have already received $23,948 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
