Over 30 years of retirement, Mulhall would collect as much as $3.43 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Mulhall received $71,995 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Mulhall will have already received $222,530 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
