Over 30 years of retirement, Niemerg would collect as much as $84,391, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes East Central Reporter.
The projection assumes Niemerg received $1,773 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 1 years of retirement, Niemerg will have already received $1,773 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
