Over 30 years of retirement, Tolley would collect as much as $1.97 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Tolley received $41,345 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Tolley will have already received $127,793 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
