Over 30 years of retirement, De would collect as much as $89,061, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes De received $1,872 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 5 years of retirement, De will have already received $9,939 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
