Over 30 years of retirement, Summerville would collect as much as $696,504, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.
The projection assumes Summerville received $14,640 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Summerville will have already received $61,247 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
