Over 30 years of retirement, Grelck would collect as much as $625,734, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes North Cook News.
The projection assumes Grelck received $13,152 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Grelck will have already received $55,024 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
