Money 05

Former state university employee David Rigsbee, who retired in June 2016, saved $72,034 toward a pension over 19 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Rigsbee would collect as much as $1.3 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Quincy Reporter.

The projection assumes Rigsbee received $27,280 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Rigsbee will have already received $84,319 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
