Over 30 years of retirement, Kandler would collect as much as $437,598, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Kandler received $9,198 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Kandler will have already received $38,481 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
