Over 30 years of retirement, Bynum would collect as much as $87,205, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Lake County Gazette.
The projection assumes Bynum received $1,833 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Bynum will have already received $3,721 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
