Over 30 years of retirement, Hauch would collect as much as $605,770, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Rockford Sun.
The projection assumes Hauch received $12,732 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Hauch will have already received $53,265 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
