Over 30 years of retirement, Cruz would collect as much as $315,619, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.
The projection assumes Cruz received $6,634 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Cruz will have already received $20,505 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
