Former state university employee Douglas Carney, who retired in April 2017, saved $24,394 toward a pension over 3 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Carney would collect as much as $334,247, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.

The projection assumes Carney received $7,025 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 4 years of retirement, Carney will have already received $29,391 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
