Over 30 years of retirement, Gettig would collect as much as $284,065, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McHenry Times.
The projection assumes Gettig received $5,970 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Gettig will have already received $18,452 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
