Over 30 years of retirement, O'Connor would collect as much as $237,513, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes O'Connor received $4,992 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, O'Connor will have already received $20,885 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
