Former state school employee Annette Furrow, who retired in May 2017, saved $80,502 toward a pension over 22 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Furrow would collect as much as $1.63 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.

The projection assumes Furrow received $34,253 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Furrow will have already received $105,873 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
