Over 30 years of retirement, Turchi would collect as much as $559,481, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Illinois Valley Times.
The projection assumes Turchi received $11,759 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Turchi will have already received $23,871 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
