Over 30 years of retirement, Bartoz would collect as much as $437,210, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.
The projection assumes Bartoz received $9,189 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Bartoz will have already received $38,444 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
