Retirement Planning Calculator

Planning for retirement begins with a goal. Use this calculator to help identify the dollar amount you might need to save for retirement and whether you are on track to meet your goals.

This is a hypothetical estimate and the projections do not represent results from actual clients. A 7% growth rate is assumed for all investments. 3% inflation is assumed for salary replacement requirements calculations at the retirement age. The surplus and shortfall per month during retirement does not include Social Security benefits. Investment profits are not guaranteed and investments may lose value.

The 4% rule is designed to help you calculate a safe withdrawal rate during retirement. You can spend 4% of your retirement assets during the first year(s) of retirement. You adjust the withdrawal rate with the rate of inflation each year or your lifestyle during retirement.

This percentage can be adjusted based on Social Security payments and the lifestyle you choose during retirement.
