Over 30 years of retirement, Ahsmann would collect as much as $5.42 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McHenry Times.
The projection assumes Ahsmann received $113,993 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Ahsmann will have already received $352,341 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
