Over 30 years of retirement, Hays would collect as much as $456,244, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Hays received $9,589 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 1 years of retirement, Hays will have already received $9,589 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
