Over 30 years of retirement, Burrier would collect as much as $975,168, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Galesburg Reporter.
The projection assumes Burrier received $20,497 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Burrier will have already received $63,354 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
