Money041

Former state university employee Elizabeth Wise, who retired in June 2018, saved $590 toward a pension over 2 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Wise would collect as much as $75,650, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes East Central Reporter.

The projection assumes Wise received $1,590 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 1 years of retirement, Wise will have already received $1,590 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
