Former state school employee Constance Rainey, who retired in December 2016, saved $152,230 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, Rainey would collect as much as $3.5 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes McHenry Times.

The projection assumes Rainey received $73,475 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Rainey will have already received $227,103 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
