How Long Will Your Money Last?
How Much Do I Need To Retire?
How many years your savings actually cover. And how much you'd need for them to cover the rest.
You already know it runs out. Here's the year.
Slide these four to match you. Nothing to type.
Your age63
5085
Everything you've got saved for retirement$150,000
$0$1,000,000+
What you need to keep your desired lifestyle$4,200
$1,000$12,000
What's coming in without working$2,000
$0$8,000
Slide any of them again and these numbers move with you.
Before you go, one thing about that number.
There's only one line in this whole thing you can actually move. Your savings are what
they are. The only number left is what it costs you to live. So go back up, slide that
one down, and watch what cutting actually buys you.
Give up $300 a month and you buy nine months.
Give up $500 a month and you buy sixteen months.
Give up $1,000 a month and you buy under four years.
Give up $500 a month and you buy sixteen months.
Give up $1,000 a month and you buy under four years.
Every month. For the rest of your life. To buy months.
That's the trade nobody says out loud. You can make the money last. You just have to
hand back your retirement to do it, one thing at a time, starting with whatever you
were looking forward to most.
Rather have me walk you through it? Here's the same math, out loud, in a few minutes.
The worksheet has all four run out on paper.
Four pages, nothing to fill in. It carries your numbers over, and there's one more
thing on that page worth two minutes of your time.
