Over 30 years of retirement, Zotta would collect as much as $3.01 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Zotta received $63,247 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Zotta will have already received $128,391 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
