Over 30 years of retirement, Sheridan would collect as much as $922,051, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Sheridan received $19,380 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Sheridan will have already received $59,901 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
