Over 30 years of retirement, Klepper would collect as much as $1.94 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DuPage Policy Journal.
The projection assumes Klepper received $40,698 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Klepper will have already received $125,794 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
