Over 30 years of retirement, Walker would collect as much as $500,660, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Walker received $10,523 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Walker will have already received $44,025 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
