Over 30 years of retirement, Shultz would collect as much as $615,047, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Peoria Standard.
The projection assumes Shultz received $12,927 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Shultz will have already received $39,956 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
