Former state university employee Sara Wade, who retired in July 2016, saved $2,943 toward a pension over 3 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Wade would collect as much as $110,658, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Peoria Standard.

The projection assumes Wade received $2,325 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Wade will have already received $4,720 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
