Over 30 years of retirement, Larson would collect as much as $3.42 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Larson received $71,934 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Larson will have already received $222,341 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
