Over 30 years of retirement, Blum would collect as much as $333,431, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Blum received $7,008 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Blum will have already received $21,661 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
