Over 30 years of retirement, Wilken would collect as much as $134,208, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Rockford Sun.
The projection assumes Wilken received $2,820 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 5 years of retirement, Wilken will have already received $14,973 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
