Over 30 years of retirement, Rainey would collect as much as $1.15 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Rainey received $24,135 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Rainey will have already received $74,599 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
