Former state university employee Catherine Corwin, who retired in September 2017, saved $92,895 toward a pension over 19 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Corwin would collect as much as $1.54 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.

The projection assumes Corwin received $32,389 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Corwin will have already received $100,112 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
