Over 30 years of retirement, Batz would collect as much as $1.71 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Lake County Gazette.
The projection assumes Batz received $35,843 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Batz will have already received $149,954 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
