Money 02

Former state university employee Mark Hill, who retired in June 2016, saved $95,786 toward a pension over 33 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Hill would collect as much as $2.4 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.

The projection assumes Hill received $50,542 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Hill will have already received $102,600 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
