Over 30 years of retirement, Bean would collect as much as $1.11 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Peoria Standard.
The projection assumes Bean received $23,364 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Bean will have already received $97,747 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
