Over 30 years of retirement, Wilde would collect as much as $951,024, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DuPage Policy Journal.
The projection assumes Wilde received $19,989 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Wilde will have already received $61,785 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
