Over 30 years of retirement, Salotti would collect as much as $171,905, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DuPage Policy Journal.
The projection assumes Salotti received $3,613 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Salotti will have already received $15,115 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
