Over 30 years of retirement, Wilkins would collect as much as $382,506, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Wilkins received $8,040 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Wilkins will have already received $24,850 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
