Over 30 years of retirement, Lauher would collect as much as $2.92 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Lauher received $61,286 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Lauher will have already received $189,430 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
