Over 30 years of retirement, Madden would collect as much as $4.02 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.
The projection assumes Madden received $84,546 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Madden will have already received $171,628 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
