Over 30 years of retirement, Arellano would collect as much as $832,151, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.
The projection assumes Arellano received $17,491 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Arellano will have already received $54,063 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
