Over 30 years of retirement, Kairis would collect as much as $5.14 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.
The projection assumes Kairis received $107,970 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Kairis will have already received $333,724 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
