Former state school employee Sharon Oxnevad, who retired in June 2017, saved $119,156 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, Oxnevad would collect as much as $2.32 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.

The projection assumes Oxnevad received $48,816 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Oxnevad will have already received $150,884 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
