Money 05

Former paramedic Joyce Hofmann, who retired in November 2016, saved $149,321 toward a pension over 33 years working for fire departments, Firemen's Annuity and Benefit Fund of Chicago records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Hofmann would collect as much as $4.92 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.

The projection assumes Hofmann received $103,508 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Hofmann will have already received $210,121 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
