Money 07

Former state university employee Terry Whitman, who retired in April 2016, saved $15,750 toward a pension over 8 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Whitman would collect as much as $577,561, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.

The projection assumes Whitman received $12,139 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Whitman will have already received $24,642 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
