Over 30 years of retirement, Walter would collect as much as $2.35 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McHenry Times.
The projection assumes Walter received $49,393 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Walter will have already received $152,669 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
