Former state school employee Kristine Dulik, who retired in June 2017, saved $66,744 toward a pension over 13 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Dulik would collect as much as $1 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kane County Reporter.

The projection assumes Dulik received $21,031 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 4 years of retirement, Dulik will have already received $87,986 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
