Former state university employee Duane Phillips, who retired in June 2016, saved $12,255 toward a pension over 11 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Phillips would collect as much as $172,413, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Quincy Reporter.

The projection assumes Phillips received $3,624 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 4 years of retirement, Phillips will have already received $15,162 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
