Over 30 years of retirement, Odwyer would collect as much as $1.09 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Will County Gazette.
The projection assumes Odwyer received $22,947 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Odwyer will have already received $70,926 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
