Over 30 years of retirement, Day would collect as much as $1.92 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Day received $40,422 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Day will have already received $82,057 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
