Over 30 years of retirement, Prado would collect as much as $628,225, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Prado received $13,204 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Prado will have already received $55,240 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
