Over 30 years of retirement, Hodge would collect as much as $2.4 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Macon Reporter.
The projection assumes Hodge received $50,416 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Hodge will have already received $155,830 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
