Former state school employee Pamela Kramer, who retired in June 2016, saved $91,192 toward a pension over 24 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Kramer would collect as much as $1.89 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.

The projection assumes Kramer received $39,817 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Kramer will have already received $123,071 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
