Over 30 years of retirement, Perry would collect as much as $485,359, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Perry received $10,201 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Perry will have already received $20,708 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
