Former state university employee Michael Veronie, who retired in November 2016, saved $184 toward a pension over 1 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Veronie would collect as much as $82,421, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Cook News.

The projection assumes Veronie received $1,732 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 1 years of retirement, Veronie will have already received $1,732 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
