Over 30 years of retirement, Granfield would collect as much as $2.7 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Lake County Gazette.
The projection assumes Granfield received $56,726 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Granfield will have already received $115,154 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
