Long-Term Wealth & Retirement Tools

Model compound growth, plan Roth IRA contributions, and estimate your retirement runway.

01 — Compound Growth

How compounding builds wealth

Compound growth is the process by which investment returns generate their own returns over time. A starting balance combined with regular monthly contributions and a reasonable long-term return assumption can grow substantially over decades — the earlier the contributions start, the more time compounding has to work.

This tool uses a standard monthly-compounding formula. Results depend on the contribution, return, and time assumptions entered.

02 — Roth IRA Planning

Roth IRA planning overview

After-Tax Contributions

Contributions are made with after-tax dollars, so qualified withdrawals in retirement are generally tax-free.

Annual Contribution Limits

The IRS sets annual limits and income eligibility rules that change periodically — verify current figures before contributing.

Flexible Withdrawal Rules

Contributions (not earnings) can typically be withdrawn without penalty, offering some flexibility versus other accounts.

03 — Retirement Runway

How much runway do you have?

A retirement runway estimate combines your current savings, ongoing contributions, time horizon, and an assumed growth rate to project a future balance. It's a directional planning tool, not a precise forecast — actual market returns vary year to year.

Revisit this projection periodically as income, contribution levels, and time horizon change.

04 — Contribution Strategy

Long-term contribution strategy

01

Automate contributions

Scheduled transfers remove the decision from each paycheck and keep contributions consistent.

02

Increase with income

Raising the contribution rate alongside raises keeps savings proportional over time.

03

Diversify account types

Balancing pre-tax and after-tax accounts can offer flexibility across different retirement tax scenarios.
