Over 30 years of retirement, Asencio would collect as much as $275,718, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Asencio received $5,795 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 8 years of retirement, Asencio will have already received $51,532 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
