Over 30 years of retirement, Pietrzak would collect as much as $1.17 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Pietrzak received $24,535 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Pietrzak will have already received $75,835 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
