Over 30 years of retirement, Schwarz would collect as much as $2.29 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Carbondale Reporter.
The projection assumes Schwarz received $48,216 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Schwarz will have already received $97,878 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
