Former state school employee Patrick Kearney, who retired in June 2016, saved $95,105 toward a pension over 22 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Kearney would collect as much as $1.55 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.

The projection assumes Kearney received $32,682 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Kearney will have already received $101,016 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
