Over 30 years of retirement, Vanhise would collect as much as $905,386, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Vanhise received $19,030 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Vanhise will have already received $58,820 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
