Over 30 years of retirement, Beckley would collect as much as $45,529, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DuPage Policy Journal.
The projection assumes Beckley received $957 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 1 years of retirement, Beckley will have already received $957 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
