Over 30 years of retirement, Kuzniewski would collect as much as $9.25 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.
The projection assumes Kuzniewski received $194,419 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Kuzniewski will have already received $394,671 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
