Over 30 years of retirement, McGeary would collect as much as $760,342, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.
The projection assumes McGeary received $15,981 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, McGeary will have already received $66,858 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
