Over 30 years of retirement, Potocki would collect as much as $678,766, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.
The projection assumes Potocki received $14,267 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Potocki will have already received $59,688 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
