Former state school employee Jean Krcmar, who retired in May 2016, saved $158,627 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, Krcmar would collect as much as $3.66 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.

The projection assumes Krcmar received $76,845 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Krcmar will have already received $237,520 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
