Over 30 years of retirement, Mount would collect as much as $622,748, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Lake County Gazette.
The projection assumes Mount received $13,089 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Mount will have already received $54,760 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
