Former state school employee Cynthia Miller, who retired in June 2018, saved $154,966 toward a pension over 30 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Miller would collect as much as $3.23 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Central Reporter.

The projection assumes Miller received $67,943 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Miller will have already received $210,004 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
