Over 30 years of retirement, Rinkel would collect as much as $2.89 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.
The projection assumes Rinkel received $60,796 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Rinkel will have already received $187,915 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
