Former state university employee Leslie Delucia, who retired in July 2018, saved $74,826 toward a pension over 13 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Delucia would collect as much as $919,299, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.

The projection assumes Delucia received $19,323 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 4 years of retirement, Delucia will have already received $80,841 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
