Over 30 years of retirement, Jepsen would collect as much as $315,733, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.
The projection assumes Jepsen received $6,636 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Jepsen will have already received $20,511 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
