Former state school employee David Roos, who retired in May 2018, saved $8,651 toward a pension over 7 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Roos would collect as much as $128,984, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.

The projection assumes Roos received $2,711 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 4 years of retirement, Roos will have already received $11,341 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
