Over 30 years of retirement, Jansen would collect as much as $703,651, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DuPage Policy Journal.
The projection assumes Jansen received $14,790 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Jansen will have already received $45,715 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
