Over 30 years of retirement, Torres would collect as much as $619,886, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Torres received $13,029 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Torres will have already received $54,510 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
