Former state university employee Marsha Koehler, who retired in June 2018, saved $2,984 toward a pension over 1 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Koehler would collect as much as $283,853, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.

The projection assumes Koehler received $5,966 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 1 years of retirement, Koehler will have already received $5,966 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
