Over 30 years of retirement, Johns would collect as much as $385,931, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Carbondale Reporter.
The projection assumes Johns received $8,112 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Johns will have already received $33,937 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
