Over 30 years of retirement, Ferguson would collect as much as $87,165, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes East Central Reporter.
The projection assumes Ferguson received $1,832 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Ferguson will have already received $7,665 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
