How We Calculate Your Required Savings
Understanding the methodology behind your retirement projections

Our calculation ensures your portfolio lasts until age 95 while maintaining your desired purchasing power throughout retirement.

Key Assumptions:

  • • Inflation continues during retirement: Your income needs increase by 2.5% annually
  • • Portfolio keeps growing: Investments earn 7% annually even in retirement
  • • Life expectancy: Portfolio must last until age 95
  • • Monthly withdrawals: Income is withdrawn monthly and adjusted for inflation each month

Calculation Process:

  1. Calculate your inflation-adjusted income need at retirement
  2. Simulate each month of retirement from retirement age to age 95
  3. For each month: withdraw income first, then apply growth to remaining balance
  4. Find the minimum portfolio value needed so the balance reaches exactly $0 at age 95
  5. Work backwards to determine when your current savings + contributions will reach that amount

This approach is more sophisticated than the traditional "4% rule" because it accounts for continuing inflation during retirement and ensures your money lasts for your entire expected lifetime.
