Former state school employee Claudia Quigg, who retired in December 2016, saved $122,453 toward a pension over 29 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Quigg would collect as much as $2.23 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Macon Reporter.

The projection assumes Quigg received $46,769 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Quigg will have already received $144,558 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
