Over 30 years of retirement, Clark would collect as much as $1.76 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Carbondale Reporter.
The projection assumes Clark received $37,097 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Clark will have already received $114,663 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
