Over 30 years of retirement, Funkey would collect as much as $3.27 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kane County Reporter.
The projection assumes Funkey received $68,814 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Funkey will have already received $212,696 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
