Over 30 years of retirement, Claricoates would collect as much as $188,472, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Claricoates received $3,961 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 1 years of retirement, Claricoates will have already received $3,961 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
