Over 30 years of retirement, Harmon would collect as much as $1.31 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Metro East Sun.
The projection assumes Harmon received $27,634 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Harmon will have already received $115,611 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
