Over 30 years of retirement, Porter would collect as much as $1.32 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Carbondale Reporter.
The projection assumes Porter received $27,695 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Porter will have already received $115,866 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
