Over 30 years of retirement, Burger would collect as much as $2.99 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Burger received $62,879 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Burger will have already received $194,352 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
