How to use the Retirement Calculator

The Retirement Calculator is free and runs entirely in your browser — no sign-up, and nothing you enter leaves your device. It opens pre-filled with a realistic example, so you can see how it works before replacing any figure with your own; the results update as you type. Press Calculate to refresh the result panel, or Reset to return to the example.

The inputs it asks for:

  • Current Age — a number.
  • Retirement Age — a number.
  • Current Savings — a dollar amount.
  • Monthly Contribution — a dollar amount.
  • Pre-Retirement Return — a percentage (enter 6 for 6%).
  • Life Expectancy — a number.
  • Desired Monthly Income — a dollar amount.

Worked example

Using the example values — Current Age 40, Retirement Age 65, Current Savings $20,000.00, Monthly Contribution $300.00, Pre-Retirement Return 7%, Life Expectancy 90, and 1 more — the Retirement Calculator returns a Projected Savings at Retirement of $357,529.87.
