Over 30 years of retirement, Singleton would collect as much as $2.68 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Singleton received $56,287 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Singleton will have already received $173,978 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
