How the estimate works

1

Adjust today’s spending

Your annual spending is increased by your inflation assumption for every year until retirement.

2

Estimate your target

The inflation-adjusted spending amount is divided by your selected withdrawal rate.

3

Project your investments

Your current balance grows annually, and your monthly contributions are grouped into annual contributions for the projection.
