Former state school employee Kelly Tallcott, who retired in May 2018, saved $104,957 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, Tallcott would collect as much as $2.47 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Quincy Reporter.

The projection assumes Tallcott received $51,830 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Tallcott will have already received $105,215 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
