Over 30 years of retirement, Goodman would collect as much as $5.38 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Goodman received $113,172 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Goodman will have already received $349,803 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
