Over 30 years of retirement, Carmine would collect as much as $13.82 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.
The projection assumes Carmine received $290,526 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Carmine will have already received $589,768 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
