Last updated: June 24, 2026. The retirement calculator runs in your browser. Values entered into calculator fields are not sent to us or stored on our servers by this version of the website.

By using markus_v5, you agree to use the website for lawful, personal, informational purposes. You may not disrupt the service, attempt unauthorized access, reproduce the website commercially, or misrepresent calculator results.
The calculator provides hypothetical estimates and is offered “as is” without guarantees of accuracy, availability, or fitness for a particular purpose. Results are not financial, investment, tax, accounting, or legal advice. You remain responsible for decisions made using this information.
Third-party products and websites have their own terms and privacy practices. We are not responsible for their services, approval decisions, rates, or content.
markus_v5 may receive compensation when you view an advertisement, click a sponsored link, submit a lead, open an account, or complete another qualifying action with a partner. This compensation helps fund the website.
Sponsored placements are labeled “Sponsored” or “Advertisement.” Compensation may influence which partners appear and where they are displayed, but it does not change the calculator’s formulas. Not every available financial product is included.
Rates, terms, eligibility, and offers can change. Verify all information directly with the provider before applying or transferring money. A partner’s appearance is not an endorsement or a guarantee of approval.
The projection grows current savings and future contributions from the current age through the selected retirement age. Employer contributions are estimated from annual income and the entered match percentage.
The displayed return is adjusted using a 2.5% inflation assumption so results are expressed in approximate today’s dollars. Estimated retirement income combines a 4% annual portfolio withdrawal with a simplified Social Security estimate based on income.
Goal coverage compares estimated monthly retirement income with 80% of current gross monthly income. Taxes, fees, account-specific contribution limits, changing income, sequence-of-returns risk, and detailed Social Security rules are not fully modeled.
