Over 30 years of retirement, Pearson would collect as much as $4.25 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McHenry Times.
The projection assumes Pearson received $89,371 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Pearson will have already received $276,237 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
