A pure formula based (no code) Google Sheet workbook that will help visualize what your future expenses, incomes, and financial account balances could support through your retirement / lifespan
Many retirement / independence scenario tools are very esoteric where they are looking to present the matter of success in terms of a few single numbers. How much you need to save and how much you tyically spend.
They lack the more realistic view of how we actually live our lives and spend our monies to better inform where / how someone can make impactful changes.

Each purchase include 3 active functional copies for 1 year
Visualize what finances in retirement look like vs. just understanding a few large numbers
Simple form to enter your current spending habits, Social Security benefits and other incomes along with your current retirement account balances.
See what happens when you change your retirement years or what the projections would look like if you took Social Security later
Manipulate your spend to meet the coming years. Show when your mortgage ends, when a car loan may start, what if you add on a new cost like a boat payment or a college loan
Include or exclude any of your income streams to see what the projection shows with or without it. Put in potential windfalls like inheritance or house sale proceeds.
For each account put in an annual contribution amount to show the accrual prior to retirement. Apply different growth rates to different types of account for a more conservative projection
Each chart is designed to inform you better than just trying to read the numbers. See where how total year by year expenses grow (or shrink) over time and how changes in the expenses or growth factors impact the balance of your retirement nest egg. See at what year their may be a short fall in meeting your expenses and adjust the plan to make it more financially sound for your lifespan
