Over 30 years of retirement, Joyce would collect as much as $28,117, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Joyce received $591 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 8 years of retirement, Joyce will have already received $5,256 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
