Over 30 years of retirement, McGreal would collect as much as $1.98 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Will County Gazette.
The projection assumes McGreal received $41,607 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, McGreal will have already received $84,462 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
