Over 30 years of retirement, Sambrookes would collect as much as $1.47 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.
The projection assumes Sambrookes received $30,795 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Sambrookes will have already received $95,185 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
