Over 30 years of retirement, Buzzell would collect as much as $6.76 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Carbondale Reporter.
The projection assumes Buzzell received $142,040 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Buzzell will have already received $288,341 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
