Over 30 years of retirement, Hoffman would collect as much as $894,288, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Illinois Valley Times.
The projection assumes Hoffman received $18,797 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Hoffman will have already received $78,640 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
