Money 07

Former state university employee Dixie Canon, who retired in September 2016, saved $8,162 toward a pension over 4 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Canon would collect as much as $117,800, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Central Reporter.

The projection assumes Canon received $2,476 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 4 years of retirement, Canon will have already received $10,359 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
