Former state university employee Robert Fisher, who retired in February 2018, saved $65,993 toward a pension over 30 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Fisher would collect as much as $1.4 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.

The projection assumes Fisher received $29,451 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Fisher will have already received $91,031 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
