Over 30 years of retirement, McQuiggin would collect as much as $113,621, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Galesburg Reporter.
The projection assumes McQuiggin received $2,388 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 5 years of retirement, McQuiggin will have already received $12,680 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
