Over 30 years of retirement, Bolden would collect as much as $1.41 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Bolden received $29,592 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Bolden will have already received $91,466 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
