Over 30 years of retirement, Francis would collect as much as $3.35 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.
The projection assumes Francis received $70,480 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Francis will have already received $217,846 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
