Over 30 years of retirement, Cantele would collect as much as $2.34 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Rockford Sun.
The projection assumes Cantele received $49,268 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Cantele will have already received $206,118 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
