Over 30 years of retirement, Wakefield would collect as much as $1.5 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.
The projection assumes Wakefield received $31,524 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Wakefield will have already received $97,438 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
