Over 30 years of retirement, Hernandez would collect as much as $2.49 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Hernandez received $52,372 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Hernandez will have already received $161,876 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
