How it works

Projects a retirement balance from what you have saved, what you add monthly, and an assumed return. The income figure applies the common 4% sustainable-withdrawal guideline.

Example

From 30 to 65 with $25,000 saved and $500/month at 7%, you would reach roughly $1.19M.

Projections assume a constant return, which real markets do not provide. Ignores inflation, fees and tax. Not financial advice.
