Former state university employee Ruthie Krystof, who retired in July 2017, saved $32,666 toward a pension over 20 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Krystof would collect as much as $835,742, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kane County Reporter.

The projection assumes Krystof received $17,566 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Krystof will have already received $35,659 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
