Over 30 years of retirement, Schoeck would collect as much as $5.56 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Schoeck received $116,845 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Schoeck will have already received $361,156 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
