Over 30 years of retirement, Leyrer would collect as much as $641,914, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Leyrer received $13,492 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Leyrer will have already received $56,446 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
