What would happen would be the deal he makes with other politicians depending on his connections and what he wants. It's not like the laws really oblige to politicians that high, but rather what they can get away with.
Laws are rather like a spiderweb: small insects get caught in them, while bigger don't bother.

Actually, there isn’t a pension for the VP. When he leaves office, Pence will get the same pension as any other member of Congress, based on his time as a Representative (12 years) and as President Of the Senate (4 years). The most he’ll get is $139K. The presidential pension is $219k. So, the ‘big difference’ is eighty thousand dollars.
