Over 30 years of retirement, Shelton would collect as much as $918,586, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Shelton received $19,308 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Shelton will have already received $59,679 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
