Over 30 years of retirement, Hazelrigg would collect as much as $2.56 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Hazelrigg received $53,735 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Hazelrigg will have already received $166,089 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
