Over 30 years of retirement, Crain would collect as much as $4.04 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.
The projection assumes Crain received $84,899 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Crain will have already received $172,345 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
