Former state university employee Catherine Sebok, who retired in July 2017, saved $67,735 toward a pension over 23 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Sebok would collect as much as $1.28 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Macon Reporter.

The projection assumes Sebok received $26,965 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Sebok will have already received $83,346 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
