Over 30 years of retirement, Criscione would collect as much as $5.08 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.
The projection assumes Criscione received $106,751 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Criscione will have already received $216,705 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
