Over 30 years of retirement, McClary would collect as much as $992,860, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes McClary received $20,869 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, McClary will have already received $64,504 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
