Former EMT captain Carlos Delgado, who retired in November 2018, saved $216,094 toward a pension over 30 years working for fire departments, Firemen's Annuity and Benefit Fund of Chicago records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Delgado would collect as much as $4.93 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.

The projection assumes Delgado received $103,618 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Delgado will have already received $320,274 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
