Our Approach

We base our calculations on widely-accepted financial planning principles:

  • The 4% Rule: A safe withdrawal rate for 30+ year retirements
  • The Rule of 25: Multiply annual expenses by 25 to find your retirement number
  • Compound Interest: The power of time and consistent contributions
  • Historical Returns: Based on long-term stock market averages

Important Disclaimer

Educational Purpose Only:

FreeRetirementCalculator.net provides educational tools and information. Our calculators and content do not constitute financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. Every individual's financial situation is unique, and past performance does not guarantee future results.

We strongly recommend consulting with qualified financial, tax, and legal professionals before making major financial decisions. Our tools are designed to help you understand retirement planning concepts, not to replace professional advice.

Accuracy and Limitations

While we strive for accuracy in all our calculators, projections are based on assumptions that may not reflect your actual future experience:

  • Investment returns vary and are not guaranteed
  • Inflation rates fluctuate over time
  • Tax laws change and vary by jurisdiction
  • Life circumstances are unpredictable

Use our calculators as a starting point for understanding your retirement trajectory, not as a guarantee of future outcomes.
