Over 30 years of retirement, Kott would collect as much as $3.18 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes North Cook News.
The projection assumes Kott received $66,915 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Kott will have already received $135,837 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
