Over 30 years of retirement, McLaurin would collect as much as $107,901, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes McLaurin received $2,268 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, McLaurin will have already received $7,010 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
