How this calculator works

Your savings and contributions grow at the expected return until retirement. Your desired income is increased by inflation to retirement, then divided by the withdrawal rate to estimate the nest egg needed (for example, 4% means 25× yearly income).

Frequently asked questions

What is the 4% rule?

A guideline suggesting you can withdraw about 4% of your portfolio in the first year of retirement, adjusting for inflation after that, with a reasonable chance of the money lasting around 30 years. It is a rule of thumb, not a guarantee.

Does this include pensions or social security?

No. Subtract any expected pension or government benefit from your desired income before entering it.
