Over 30 years of retirement, Rhodes would collect as much as $449,262, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Lake County Gazette.
The projection assumes Rhodes received $9,443 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Rhodes will have already received $19,169 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
