Over 30 years of retirement, Kwok would collect as much as $1.72 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kane County Reporter.
The projection assumes Kwok received $36,190 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Kwok will have already received $111,860 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
