Former state school employee David Hatfill, who retired in September 2018, saved $69,131 toward a pension over 23 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Hatfill would collect as much as $1.4 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.

The projection assumes Hatfill received $29,408 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Hatfill will have already received $90,897 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
