Over 30 years of retirement, Burdick would collect as much as $2.95 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Macon Reporter.
The projection assumes Burdick received $61,980 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Burdick will have already received $125,819 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
