Over 30 years of retirement, Bankovic would collect as much as $1.73 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes North Cook News.
The projection assumes Bankovic received $36,288 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Bankovic will have already received $151,816 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
