Former state university employee Reza Hashemian, who retired in June 2018, saved $68,402 toward a pension over 13 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Hashemian would collect as much as $4.26 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.

The projection assumes Hashemian received $89,566 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 1 years of retirement, Hashemian will have already received $89,566 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
