Money 08

Former state university employee Mary Holmes, who retired in July 2016, saved $30,058 toward a pension over 7 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Holmes would collect as much as $659,532, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Central Reporter.

The projection assumes Holmes received $13,862 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Holmes will have already received $42,846 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
