Over 30 years of retirement, Toepke would collect as much as $5.32 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Peoria Standard.
The projection assumes Toepke received $111,853 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Toepke will have already received $227,062 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
