Over 30 years of retirement, Ercoli would collect as much as $4.73 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.
The projection assumes Ercoli received $99,479 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Ercoli will have already received $201,942 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
