Over 30 years of retirement, Destri would collect as much as $3.06 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McLean County Times.
The projection assumes Destri received $64,349 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Destri will have already received $198,895 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
