Over 30 years of retirement, Boerjan would collect as much as $2.86 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes NW Illinois News.
The projection assumes Boerjan received $60,025 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Boerjan will have already received $185,532 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
