Former state university employee Steven Malehorn, who retired in January 2019, saved $82,168 toward a pension over 21 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Malehorn would collect as much as $1.37 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes East Central Reporter.

The projection assumes Malehorn received $28,704 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Malehorn will have already received $88,721 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
