Over 30 years of retirement, Ramirez would collect as much as $3.24 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Ramirez received $68,001 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Ramirez will have already received $210,184 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
