Over 30 years of retirement, Kotowski would collect as much as $132,090, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Kotowski received $2,776 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 5 years of retirement, Kotowski will have already received $14,737 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
