Over 30 years of retirement, McGinnis would collect as much as $2.6 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.
The projection assumes McGinnis received $54,662 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, McGinnis will have already received $110,964 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
