Over 30 years of retirement, Gleeson would collect as much as $5.01 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Gleeson received $105,213 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Gleeson will have already received $213,582 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
