Former state school employee Jane Hoffmann, who retired in June 2016, saved $76,697 toward a pension over 23 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Hoffmann would collect as much as $1.43 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Illinois Valley Times.

The projection assumes Hoffmann received $30,009 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Hoffmann will have already received $92,754 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
