Over 30 years of retirement, Catan would collect as much as $748,051, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McHenry Times.
The projection assumes Catan received $15,723 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Catan will have already received $48,599 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
