Over 30 years of retirement, Carrington would collect as much as $219,358, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Carrington received $4,610 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 5 years of retirement, Carrington will have already received $24,473 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
