Over 30 years of retirement, Masi would collect as much as $4.57 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Masi received $96,000 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 1 years of retirement, Masi will have already received $96,000 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
