Over 30 years of retirement, Matuszak would collect as much as $3.04 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Matuszak received $63,956 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Matuszak will have already received $197,682 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
