Over 30 years of retirement, Rocha would collect as much as $534,271, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Rocha received $11,230 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Rocha will have already received $34,711 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
