Over 30 years of retirement, Wittum would collect as much as $2.54 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McHenry Times.
The projection assumes Wittum received $53,313 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Wittum will have already received $164,784 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
