Over 30 years of retirement, Noffke would collect as much as $2.91 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kankakee Times.
The projection assumes Noffke received $61,143 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Noffke will have already received $188,986 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
