Over 30 years of retirement, Busse would collect as much as $568,444, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kane County Reporter.
The projection assumes Busse received $11,948 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Busse will have already received $36,929 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
