Over 30 years of retirement, Perala would collect as much as $759,566, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Perala received $15,965 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Perala will have already received $66,791 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
