“In New Jersey, 540 public employees boosted their salaries last year with multiple government jobs that topped $100,000 — which will lead to sky-high retirement payments for years to come, the Asbury Park Press found. Seventy-seven high-paid multiple job holders were in Monmouth and Ocean counties, with Murray reaping the largest paycheck. Not too far behind was Ocean County Freeholder James F. Lacey. He was paid a total of $192,000 as Brick MUA’s administrator and a member of the county’s elected governing body. It’s all legal, and highly paid multiple job holders took home $74 million in taxpayer money in 2014, down by just $3 million from 2013.”
