Former state university employee Mark Vollstedt, who retired in June 2017, saved $108,266 toward a pension over 29 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Vollstedt would collect as much as $2.36 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.

The projection assumes Vollstedt received $49,592 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Vollstedt will have already received $153,284 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
