Former state university employee Pamela Dewey, who retired in August 2018, saved $56,647 toward a pension over 19 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Dewey would collect as much as $1.45 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Peoria Standard.

The projection assumes Dewey received $30,426 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Dewey will have already received $61,765 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
