Over 30 years of retirement, Beamon would collect as much as $75,890, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.
The projection assumes Beamon received $1,595 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Beamon will have already received $4,930 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
