Over 30 years of retirement, Troyer would collect as much as $5.25 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes North Cook News.
The projection assumes Troyer received $110,371 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Troyer will have already received $341,145 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
