Over 30 years of retirement, McAndrews would collect as much as $533,796, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes McAndrews received $11,220 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, McAndrews will have already received $46,942 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
