Over 30 years of retirement, Murdoch would collect as much as $1.71 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.
The projection assumes Murdoch received $35,987 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Murdoch will have already received $111,233 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
