Over 30 years of retirement, Wong would collect as much as $76,501, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Wong received $1,608 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Wong will have already received $3,264 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
