Over 30 years of retirement, Rechner would collect as much as $1.03 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Quincy Reporter.
The projection assumes Rechner received $21,660 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Rechner will have already received $66,949 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
