Former state university employee Beverly Loxley, who retired in April 2017, saved $3,918 toward a pension over 12 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Loxley would collect as much as $120,403, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.

The projection assumes Loxley received $2,530 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Loxley will have already received $5,136 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
