Over 30 years of retirement, Musschoot would collect as much as $3.77 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Musschoot received $79,291 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Musschoot will have already received $245,081 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
