Over 30 years of retirement, Reed would collect as much as $1.91 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Reed received $40,095 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Reed will have already received $123,930 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
