Over 30 years of retirement, Diederich would collect as much as $2.41 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Central Reporter.
The projection assumes Diederich received $50,582 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Diederich will have already received $102,681 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
