Over 30 years of retirement, Trickey would collect as much as $494,791, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Trickey received $10,400 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Trickey will have already received $32,145 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
