Over 30 years of retirement, Chrestopoulos would collect as much as $82,712, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Carbondale Reporter.
The projection assumes Chrestopoulos received $1,738 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Chrestopoulos will have already received $3,528 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
