Money 04

Former state university employee Anne Gorenz, who retired in October 2018, saved $11,764 toward a pension over 10 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Gorenz would collect as much as $553,206, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kane County Reporter.

The projection assumes Gorenz received $11,628 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Gorenz will have already received $23,605 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
