Over 30 years of retirement, Bozarth would collect as much as $1.25 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Bozarth received $26,309 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Bozarth will have already received $81,318 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
