Over 30 years of retirement, Killian would collect as much as $1.48 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Killian received $31,008 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Killian will have already received $95,842 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
