Former special education worker Laura Eble, who retired in August 2018, saved $162,898 toward a pension over 32 years working for public schools, Chicago Teachers' Pension Fund records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Eble would collect as much as $3.03 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.

The projection assumes Eble received $63,713 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Eble will have already received $196,930 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
