Over 30 years of retirement, Poshepny would collect as much as $806,882, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DuPage Policy Journal.
The projection assumes Poshepny received $16,960 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Poshepny will have already received $34,429 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
