Money 01

Former state university employee Jacqueline Schubert, who retired in September 2016, saved $12,860 toward a pension over 6 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Schubert would collect as much as $168,508, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.

The projection assumes Schubert received $3,541 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 4 years of retirement, Schubert will have already received $14,813 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
