Over 30 years of retirement, Cole would collect as much as $67,635, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Lake County Gazette.
The projection assumes Cole received $1,421 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 1 years of retirement, Cole will have already received $1,421 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
