Over 30 years of retirement, Ash would collect as much as $103,779, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Central Reporter.
The projection assumes Ash received $2,181 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Ash will have already received $6,740 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
