Over 30 years of retirement, Thuline would collect as much as $94,147, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Rock Island Today.
The projection assumes Thuline received $1,978 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Thuline will have already received $6,113 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
