Money 05

Former state university employee Mary Lohman, who retired in June 2016, saved $14,579 toward a pension over 15 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Lohman would collect as much as $260,926, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Rock Island Today.

The projection assumes Lohman received $5,484 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Lohman will have already received $16,951 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
