Over 30 years of retirement, Gordon would collect as much as $175,267, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Gordon received $3,684 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Gordon will have already received $7,479 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
