Over 30 years of retirement, Neuhaus would collect as much as $1.4 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Neuhaus received $29,459 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Neuhaus will have already received $91,055 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
