Over 30 years of retirement, Devaney would collect as much as $1.55 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.
The projection assumes Devaney received $32,608 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Devaney will have already received $100,788 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
