Over 30 years of retirement, Mullins would collect as much as $1.42 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Central Reporter.
The projection assumes Mullins received $29,761 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Mullins will have already received $91,989 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
