Over 30 years of retirement, Leavitt would collect as much as $88,556, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Leavitt received $1,861 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 6 years of retirement, Leavitt will have already received $12,040 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
