Over 30 years of retirement, Miles would collect as much as $874,146, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Miles received $18,373 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Miles will have already received $56,789 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
