The New Number 1 Oregon Public Employees Retirement System pension is $913,335 a year


The Oregonian reports:
An updated pension roll released by the Oregon Public Employees Retirement System includes at least one-eye popping number.


That's the check the system is cutting each month to Joe Robertson, the president of Oregon Health & Science University, who retired at the end of October after nearly 33 years at the Portland university.

That translates to $913,335 a year, making Robertson the top public pension recipient in the state, easily surpassing OHSU neurosurgeon Johnny Delashaw, who retired in 2015 and now receives annual benefits of $684,944; or former University of Oregon football coach Mike Bellotti, who retired in 2010 and now receives $558,690 a year in benefits.
Imagine that. Appears "we" aren't the government.
