Over 30 years of retirement, Babcock would collect as much as $3.73 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Lake County Gazette.
The projection assumes Babcock received $78,349 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Babcock will have already received $159,048 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
