Over 30 years of retirement, Brewer would collect as much as $1.67 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Brewer received $35,040 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Brewer will have already received $108,305 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
