Over 30 years of retirement, Morey would collect as much as $2.47 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Morey received $52,010 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Morey will have already received $105,580 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
