Over 30 years of retirement, Uhlken would collect as much as $1.45 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Uhlken received $30,534 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Uhlken will have already received $94,378 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
