Former state university employee Brian Lotz, who retired in August 2018, saved $91,379 toward a pension over 18 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Lotz would collect as much as $1.26 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Metro East Sun.

The projection assumes Lotz received $26,554 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 4 years of retirement, Lotz will have already received $111,094 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
