Over 30 years of retirement, Paus would collect as much as $802,498, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Will County Gazette.
The projection assumes Paus received $16,867 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Paus will have already received $52,134 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
