Former state school employee Claudia Kosinski, who retired in March 2018, saved $8,581 toward a pension over 5 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Kosinski would collect as much as $211,765, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.

The projection assumes Kosinski received $4,451 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Kosinski will have already received $9,036 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
