Former state university employee Joanne Malinowski, who retired in April 2018, saved $73,526 toward a pension over 8 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Malinowski would collect as much as $1.11 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chicago City Wire.

The projection assumes Malinowski received $23,303 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 4 years of retirement, Malinowski will have already received $97,491 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
