Over 30 years of retirement, Denny would collect as much as $51,815, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Denny received $1,089 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Denny will have already received $4,558 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
