Over 30 years of retirement, McNeilly would collect as much as $637,398, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes North Cook News.
The projection assumes McNeilly received $13,397 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, McNeilly will have already received $41,409 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
