Over 30 years of retirement, Nolan would collect as much as $4.84 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Nolan received $101,731 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Nolan will have already received $314,440 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
