Over 30 years of retirement, Yallaly would collect as much as $1.58 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes East Central Reporter.
The projection assumes Yallaly received $33,183 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Yallaly will have already received $138,823 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
