Over 30 years of retirement, Coleman would collect as much as $3.41 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Coleman received $71,779 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Coleman will have already received $221,861 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
