Over 30 years of retirement, Perez would collect as much as $328,270, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Perez received $6,900 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Perez will have already received $21,327 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
