Over 30 years of retirement, Harrison would collect as much as $972,376, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Harrison received $20,438 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 1 years of retirement, Harrison will have already received $20,438 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
