Money 07

Former state university employee Kathryn Claywell, who retired in June 2016, saved $10,176 toward a pension over 8 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Claywell would collect as much as $501,345, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Metro East Sun.

The projection assumes Claywell received $10,537 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 1 years of retirement, Claywell will have already received $10,537 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
