Over 30 years of retirement, Hiatt would collect as much as $465,093, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Hiatt received $9,775 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Hiatt will have already received $19,843 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
