Former state school employee Cynthia McGuckin, who retired in May 2016, saved $236,822 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, McGuckin would collect as much as $6.07 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.

The projection assumes McGuckin received $127,556 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, McGuckin will have already received $258,939 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
