Over 30 years of retirement, Rinker would collect as much as $2.9 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Rinker received $60,984 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Rinker will have already received $188,496 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
