Former state school employee Janie Piersall, who retired in September 2016, saved $23,201 toward a pension over 11 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Piersall would collect as much as $416,812, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes East Central Reporter.

The projection assumes Piersall received $8,761 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Piersall will have already received $27,080 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
