Over 30 years of retirement, Zawacke would collect as much as $286,023, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Zawacke received $6,012 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Zawacke will have already received $18,582 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
