Over 30 years of retirement, Rankin would collect as much as $754,947, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Will County Gazette.
The projection assumes Rankin received $15,868 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 1 years of retirement, Rankin will have already received $15,868 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
