Over 30 years of retirement, Beekman would collect as much as $1.32 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Central Reporter.
The projection assumes Beekman received $27,817 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Beekman will have already received $85,981 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
