Over 30 years of retirement, Niemerg would collect as much as $224,399, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes East Central Reporter.
The projection assumes Niemerg received $4,716 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Niemerg will have already received $14,576 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
