Over 30 years of retirement, Fear would collect as much as $83,923, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Fear received $1,764 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Fear will have already received $3,581 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
