Over 30 years of retirement, Kelley would collect as much as $242,434, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Metro East Sun.
The projection assumes Kelley received $5,095 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Kelley will have already received $21,315 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
