Money 05

Former state university employee Roger Donoho, who retired in March 2017, saved $98,155 toward a pension over 25 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Donoho would collect as much as $1.67 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.

The projection assumes Donoho received $35,178 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Donoho will have already received $108,731 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
