Over 30 years of retirement, Nakashima would collect as much as $1.13 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.
The projection assumes Nakashima received $23,651 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Nakashima will have already received $73,104 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
