Over 30 years of retirement, Malinowski would collect as much as $56,519, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Lake County Gazette.
The projection assumes Malinowski received $1,188 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 5 years of retirement, Malinowski will have already received $6,310 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
