Over 30 years of retirement, MacKay would collect as much as $899,974, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kane County Reporter.
The projection assumes MacKay received $18,916 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, MacKay will have already received $79,135 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
