Over 30 years of retirement, Fogarty would collect as much as $1.34 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Macon Reporter.
The projection assumes Fogarty received $28,238 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Fogarty will have already received $118,138 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
