Over 30 years of retirement, Lockard would collect as much as $977,069, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Carbondale Reporter.
The projection assumes Lockard received $20,537 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Lockard will have already received $63,478 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
