Over 30 years of retirement, Heidorn would collect as much as $243,924, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Heidorn received $5,127 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Heidorn will have already received $10,408 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
