Over 30 years of retirement, Miller would collect as much as $2.72 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Miller received $57,125 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Miller will have already received $115,964 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
