Former state school employee Ralph Wooland, who retired in May 2018, saved $14,088 toward a pension over 6 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Wooland would collect as much as $331,678, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.

The projection assumes Wooland received $6,971 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Wooland will have already received $14,151 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
