Former state university employee Larry Lanciotti, who retired in June 2018, saved $117,689 toward a pension over 22 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Lanciotti would collect as much as $2.42 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.

The projection assumes Lanciotti received $50,910 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Lanciotti will have already received $157,357 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
