Frequently Asked Questions

How do I account for inflation in retirement?

Calculate target in today's dollars (without inflation). Use real (inflation-adjusted) returns in growth rate. This avoids double-counting inflation.

What if I die before reaching my goal?

Insurance (term life) covers dependents. If single, over-saving for own longevity is fine. Flexible retirement plans adjust—if markets boom, retire earlier; if tank, delay.

Should I plan for healthcare costs?

Yes. Medicare starts at 65 (US); budget $300k–500k healthcare from 65–95. UK: NHS free. Plan for long-term care (nursing home): $50k–100k/year if needed.
