Over 30 years of retirement, Sundberg would collect as much as $5.39 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Galesburg Reporter.
The projection assumes Sundberg received $113,276 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Sundberg will have already received $229,950 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
