Over 30 years of retirement, Wheeler would collect as much as $434,001, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Wheeler received $9,122 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 1 years of retirement, Wheeler will have already received $9,122 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
