Over 30 years of retirement, Schiele would collect as much as $4.2 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Lake County Gazette.
The projection assumes Schiele received $88,356 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Schiele will have already received $273,100 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
