Over 30 years of retirement, Dandrea would collect as much as $182,324, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.
The projection assumes Dandrea received $3,832 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Dandrea will have already received $16,031 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
