Over 30 years of retirement, Gvazdinskas would collect as much as $89,609, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Gvazdinskas received $1,883 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Gvazdinskas will have already received $5,819 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
