Over 30 years of retirement, Pazin would collect as much as $151,495, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Pazin received $3,184 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Pazin will have already received $9,842 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
