Former state school employee Rosanne Corey, who retired in May 2017, saved $146,770 toward a pension over 35 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Corey would collect as much as $3.38 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Macon Reporter.

The projection assumes Corey received $70,943 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Corey will have already received $219,277 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
