Frequently Asked Questions
While we use sophisticated financial models based on historical data and standard industry practices, all projections are estimates. Actual returns may vary due to market conditions, economic factors, and personal circumstances. We recommend revisiting your plan annually and after significant life events to adjust for changing conditions.
Our calculator focuses on your personal retirement savings. While Social Security may provide additional income during retirement, we recommend being conservative in relying on it for your primary retirement planning due to uncertainties about future benefit levels. Many financial advisors suggest treating Social Security as supplemental income rather than a foundation of your retirement plan.
Inflation significantly impacts retirement planning by eroding purchasing power over time. Our calculator accounts for inflation in two ways: by increasing your required retirement income each year and by adjusting investment returns to “real” (inflation-adjusted) terms. We use the inflation rate you select to project how much more income you’ll need each year during retirement to maintain the same lifestyle.
If the calculator shows you’re not on track to meet your retirement goals, don’t panic. We provide specific recommendations to help you get back on track, such as increasing your monthly contributions, adjusting your retirement age, or revising your investment strategy. The key is to take action early – even small increases in savings can make a big difference over time due to compound growth.
We recommend reviewing your retirement plan at least annually or whenever you experience significant life changes such as a career move, salary change, marriage, birth of a child, or inheritance. Additionally, major economic events or extended market downturns may warrant a review of your assumptions and strategy. Regular check-ins help ensure you stay on track to meet your retirement goals.
