Money 06

Former state school employee Ann Clark, who retired in June 2018, saved $117,220 toward a pension over 35 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Clark would collect as much as $2.27 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.

The projection assumes Clark received $47,769 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Clark will have already received $147,649 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
