Former state university employee Danell Nixon, who retired in October 2018, saved $62,661 toward a pension over 20 years working for state universities, State Universities Retirement System of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Nixon would collect as much as $1.02 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes DeKalb Times.

The projection assumes Nixon received $21,367 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Nixon will have already received $66,043 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.
