Over 30 years of retirement, Hamilton would collect as much as $418,724, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.
The projection assumes Hamilton received $8,801 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Hamilton will have already received $27,203 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
