Over 30 years of retirement, Goss would collect as much as $4.55 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Goss received $95,564 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Goss will have already received $295,379 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
