Over 30 years of retirement, Hollender would collect as much as $874,398, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kane County Reporter.
The projection assumes Hollender received $18,379 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Hollender will have already received $56,807 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
