Former school social worker Etta Holloway, who retired in June 2016, saved $122,413 toward a pension over 25 years working for public schools, Chicago Teachers' Pension Fund records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Holloway would collect as much as $2.39 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.

The projection assumes Holloway received $50,200 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Holloway will have already received $155,163 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
