Money 01

Former state school employee Laura Nemetz, who retired in May 2018, saved $113,765 toward a pension over 22 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Nemetz would collect as much as $2.16 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kendall County Times.

The projection assumes Nemetz received $45,366 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Nemetz will have already received $140,222 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
