Over 30 years of retirement, Savala would collect as much as $720,543, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Savala received $15,145 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Savala will have already received $46,811 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
