Over 30 years of retirement, Lamar would collect as much as $185,846, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.
The projection assumes Lamar received $3,906 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Lamar will have already received $16,341 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
