Money 07

Former state university employee Margarett Carman, who retired in January 2019, saved $63,995 toward a pension over 26 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Carman would collect as much as $1.17 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Metro East Sun.

The projection assumes Carman received $24,672 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Carman will have already received $76,258 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
