Over 30 years of retirement, Bragg would collect as much as $1.38 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.
The projection assumes Bragg received $29,077 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Bragg will have already received $89,873 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
