Former state university employee Elizabeth Scally, who retired in July 2018, saved $167,811 toward a pension over 30 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Scally would collect as much as $2.36 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Carbondale Reporter.

The projection assumes Scally received $49,654 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 4 years of retirement, Scally will have already received $207,734 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
