Over 30 years of retirement, Kirn would collect as much as $1.76 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.
The projection assumes Kirn received $36,998 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Kirn will have already received $75,106 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
