Former state university employee Dora Ivory, who retired in July 2016, saved $49,502 toward a pension over 21 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Ivory would collect as much as $1.86 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.

The projection assumes Ivory received $39,159 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Ivory will have already received $79,493 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
