Over 30 years of retirement, Finedore would collect as much as $3.86 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Lake County Gazette.
The projection assumes Finedore received $81,230 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Finedore will have already received $164,897 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
