Over 30 years of retirement, Roebuck Knight would collect as much as $666,514, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DuPage Policy Journal.
The projection assumes Roebuck Knight received $14,009 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Roebuck Knight will have already received $43,300 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
