Over 30 years of retirement, Corrigan would collect as much as $625,945, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Corrigan received $13,156 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Corrigan will have already received $40,665 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
