Over 30 years of retirement, Figel would collect as much as $3.92 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes North Cook News.
The projection assumes Figel received $82,308 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Figel will have already received $254,405 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
