Over 30 years of retirement, Pfaffe would collect as much as $2.56 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Pfaffe received $53,734 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Pfaffe will have already received $166,086 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
