Over 30 years of retirement, Sprague would collect as much as $402,550, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Lake County Gazette.
The projection assumes Sprague received $8,461 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Sprague will have already received $26,152 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
