Over 30 years of retirement, McDougal would collect as much as $1.43 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes McDougal received $29,979 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, McDougal will have already received $92,661 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
