Over 30 years of retirement, Gurley would collect as much as $5.5 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Gurley received $115,698 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Gurley will have already received $357,611 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
