Over 30 years of retirement, Murry would collect as much as $2.63 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Metro East Sun.
The projection assumes Murry received $55,345 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Murry will have already received $171,065 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
