Over 30 years of retirement, Keime would collect as much as $2.93 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes NW Illinois News.
The projection assumes Keime received $61,543 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Keime will have already received $124,932 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
