Over 30 years of retirement, Foster would collect as much as $4.49 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes North Cook News.
The projection assumes Foster received $94,304 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Foster will have already received $191,437 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
