Over 30 years of retirement, Hernandez would collect as much as $2.42 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Hernandez received $50,969 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Hernandez will have already received $157,540 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
