Over 30 years of retirement, Flannigan would collect as much as $3.05 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Macon Reporter.
The projection assumes Flannigan received $64,084 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Flannigan will have already received $198,078 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
