Over 30 years of retirement, Seegers would collect as much as $3.59 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes North Cook News.
The projection assumes Seegers received $75,404 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Seegers will have already received $233,066 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
