Former state school employee Donna Goerlich, who retired in May 2018, saved $61,367 toward a pension over 22 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Goerlich would collect as much as $1.11 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Quincy Reporter.

The projection assumes Goerlich received $23,330 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Goerlich will have already received $72,111 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
