Over 30 years of retirement, Rubel would collect as much as $1.08 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes East Central Reporter.
The projection assumes Rubel received $22,643 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Rubel will have already received $45,965 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
