Over 30 years of retirement, Knott would collect as much as $317,148, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.
The projection assumes Knott received $6,666 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Knott will have already received $13,532 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
