Over 30 years of retirement, Muhammad would collect as much as $306,952, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Muhammad received $6,451 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Muhammad will have already received $26,989 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
