Over 30 years of retirement, Aguilar would collect as much as $1.75 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McHenry Times.
The projection assumes Aguilar received $36,793 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Aguilar will have already received $113,724 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
