Over 30 years of retirement, Gottlieb would collect as much as $3.79 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.
The projection assumes Gottlieb received $79,578 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Gottlieb will have already received $245,967 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
