Over 30 years of retirement, Zerbonia would collect as much as $745,778, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Peoria Standard.
The projection assumes Zerbonia received $15,675 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Zerbonia will have already received $31,820 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
