Over 30 years of retirement, King would collect as much as $1.18 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Carbondale Reporter.
The projection assumes King received $24,708 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 7 years of retirement, King will have already received $189,318 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
