Former state school employee Margaret Bobber, who retired in June 2018, saved $224,346 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, Bobber would collect as much as $5.12 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Will County Gazette.

The projection assumes Bobber received $107,664 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Bobber will have already received $332,779 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
