Over 30 years of retirement, Stewarts would collect as much as $1.76 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes North Cook News.
The projection assumes Stewarts received $37,092 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Stewarts will have already received $114,648 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
