1 Based on today's dollar value

* All projected income amounts are in today's dollars. However, because inflation decreases spending power, the savings recommendation is based on a 3% projected inflation rate in order to ensure your investments maintain their spending power. Your pension and Social Security may or may not keep pace with inflation. The calculator assumes your money will grow at a tax-deferred rate of 5% during retirement and at the end of your retirement period, your balance is $0.
