Over 30 years of retirement, Tallarico would collect as much as $369,124, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Peoria Standard.
The projection assumes Tallarico received $7,758 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Tallarico will have already received $15,749 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
