Over 30 years of retirement, Hurlbut would collect as much as $737,574, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Illinois Valley Times.
The projection assumes Hurlbut received $15,503 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Hurlbut will have already received $47,918 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
