Over 30 years of retirement, Schmidt would collect as much as $113,027, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Metro East Sun.
The projection assumes Schmidt received $2,375 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Schmidt will have already received $9,935 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
