Over 30 years of retirement, Heintzman would collect as much as $3.07 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Macon Reporter.

After 2 years of retirement, Heintzman will have already received $130,799 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
