Over 30 years of retirement, Jimerson would collect as much as $98,595, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.
The projection assumes Jimerson received $2,072 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Jimerson will have already received $8,668 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
