Over 30 years of retirement, Carson would collect as much as $80,663, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kankakee Times.
The projection assumes Carson received $1,695 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Carson will have already received $7,091 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
