Money 08

Former state school employee Patricia Andersen, who retired in May 2016, saved $7,687 toward a pension over 5 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Andersen would collect as much as $111,497, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Central Reporter.

The projection assumes Andersen received $2,343 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 4 years of retirement, Andersen will have already received $9,801 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
