Over 30 years of retirement, Pidde Serpico would collect as much as $3.14 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DuPage Policy Journal.
The projection assumes Pidde Serpico received $65,998 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Pidde Serpico will have already received $203,993 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
