Over 30 years of retirement, Crockett would collect as much as $1.33 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes East Central Reporter.
The projection assumes Crockett received $28,045 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Crockett will have already received $86,684 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
