Over 30 years of retirement, Kane would collect as much as $271,179, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Kane received $5,700 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 1 years of retirement, Kane will have already received $5,700 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
