Over 30 years of retirement, Singer would collect as much as $56,553, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Singer received $1,188 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Singer will have already received $4,972 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
