Over 30 years of retirement, Martinkus would collect as much as $1.83 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.
The projection assumes Martinkus received $38,479 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Martinkus will have already received $118,934 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
