Over 30 years of retirement, Rainwater would collect as much as $866,570, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Rainwater received $18,214 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Rainwater will have already received $56,297 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
