Over 30 years of retirement, Bill would collect as much as $2.13 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Peoria Standard.
The projection assumes Bill received $44,777 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Bill will have already received $138,401 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
