Over 30 years of retirement, Garee would collect as much as $857,767, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Garee received $18,029 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Garee will have already received $55,726 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
