Over 30 years of retirement, Weed would collect as much as $175,884, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Weed received $3,696 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Weed will have already received $11,424 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
