Over 30 years of retirement, Fischer would collect as much as $2.08 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes North Cook News.
The projection assumes Fischer received $43,718 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Fischer will have already received $135,129 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
