Over 30 years of retirement, Ogden would collect as much as $3.44 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Ogden received $72,281 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Ogden will have already received $223,412 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
