Over 30 years of retirement, Schott would collect as much as $2.18 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Metro East Sun.
The projection assumes Schott received $45,899 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Schott will have already received $141,869 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
