Over 30 years of retirement, Cain would collect as much as $2.3 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McHenry Times.
The projection assumes Cain received $48,440 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Cain will have already received $149,723 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
