Over 30 years of retirement, McHugh would collect as much as $658,013, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.
The projection assumes McHugh received $13,830 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, McHugh will have already received $28,075 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
