Over 30 years of retirement, Pieper would collect as much as $5.03 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Pieper received $105,831 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Pieper will have already received $214,837 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
