Over 30 years of retirement, Decorte would collect as much as $3.59 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Decorte received $75,354 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Decorte will have already received $232,912 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
