Former state school employee Ellen Gipple, who retired in May 2016, saved $81,172 toward a pension over 24 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Gipple would collect as much as $1.78 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kankakee Times.

The projection assumes Gipple received $37,392 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Gipple will have already received $115,575 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
