Over 30 years of retirement, Talavera would collect as much as $515,704, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Talavera received $10,839 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Talavera will have already received $45,346 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
