Over 30 years of retirement, Dean would collect as much as $58,140, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kane County Reporter.
The projection assumes Dean received $1,222 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Dean will have already received $5,114 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
