Money 07

Former state school employee Jennifer Hudgens, who retired in May 2017, saved $139,527 toward a pension over 28 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Hudgens would collect as much as $2.66 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Carbondale Reporter.

The projection assumes Hudgens received $55,994 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Hudgens will have already received $173,072 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
