Over 30 years of retirement, Parkin would collect as much as $2.21 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Metro East Sun.
The projection assumes Parkin received $46,429 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Parkin will have already received $143,508 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
