Over 30 years of retirement, Crow would collect as much as $5.01 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Rockford Sun.
The projection assumes Crow received $105,312 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Crow will have already received $213,783 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
