Former state university employee Jacqueline McNeilly, who retired in June 2016, saved $32,997 toward a pension over 18 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, McNeilly would collect as much as $637,398, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes North Cook News.

The projection assumes McNeilly received $13,397 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, McNeilly will have already received $41,409 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
