Over 30 years of retirement, Holtrop would collect as much as $3.16 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.
The projection assumes Holtrop received $66,496 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Holtrop will have already received $134,987 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
