Money 06

Former state university employee Karen Pieranunzi, who retired in January 2016, saved $46,525 toward a pension over 21 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Pieranunzi would collect as much as $2.24 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.

The projection assumes Pieranunzi received $47,166 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 1 years of retirement, Pieranunzi will have already received $47,166 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
