Over 30 years of retirement, Skoglund would collect as much as $1.57 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Rockford Sun.
The projection assumes Skoglund received $33,012 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Skoglund will have already received $102,036 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
