Over 30 years of retirement, Tomshack would collect as much as $188,021, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes East Central Reporter.
The projection assumes Tomshack received $3,952 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Tomshack will have already received $16,535 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
