Over 30 years of retirement, Goodman would collect as much as $231,958, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DuPage Policy Journal.
The projection assumes Goodman received $4,875 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Goodman will have already received $15,068 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
