Over 30 years of retirement, Linton would collect as much as $1.68 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Linton received $35,238 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 1 years of retirement, Linton will have already received $35,238 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
