Former state university employee George Moreland, who retired in February 2016, saved $36,015 toward a pension over 12 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Moreland would collect as much as $683,082, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Peoria Standard.

The projection assumes Moreland received $14,357 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Moreland will have already received $44,377 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
