Former state university employee Vickie Morden, who retired in April 2016, saved $2,759 toward a pension over 4 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Morden would collect as much as $52,614, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Metro East Sun.

The projection assumes Morden received $1,105 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Morden will have already received $3,415 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
