Over 30 years of retirement, Drexler would collect as much as $3.28 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Drexler received $68,948 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Drexler will have already received $213,110 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
