Over 30 years of retirement, Safranek would collect as much as $1.56 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Safranek received $32,748 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Safranek will have already received $101,220 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
