Over 30 years of retirement, Leonard would collect as much as $183,831, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Leonard received $3,864 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 5 years of retirement, Leonard will have already received $20,514 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
