Over 30 years of retirement, Baeza would collect as much as $365,676, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes North Cook News.
The projection assumes Baeza received $7,686 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Baeza will have already received $32,158 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
