Over 30 years of retirement, Hagely would collect as much as $1.64 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Metro East Sun.
The projection assumes Hagely received $34,555 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Hagely will have already received $144,567 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
