Former state university employee Beverly Malooley, who retired in January 2017, saved $41,510 toward a pension over 15 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Malooley would collect as much as $826,482, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Illinois Valley Times.

The projection assumes Malooley received $17,372 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Malooley will have already received $53,695 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
