Former state university employee Rakotonirina Andriamahefa, who retired in October 2016, saved $1,620 toward a pension over 1 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Andriamahefa would collect as much as $21,123, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.

The projection assumes Andriamahefa received $444 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 4 years of retirement, Andriamahefa will have already received $1,857 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
