Over 30 years of retirement, Ebers would collect as much as $1.35 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Ebers received $28,333 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Ebers will have already received $87,574 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
