Over 30 years of retirement, Mansell would collect as much as $718,398, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Mansell received $15,100 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Mansell will have already received $30,653 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
