Retirement Shortfall Calculator

Retirement Shortfall Calculator

Project your shortfall or surplus at retirement.

What This Number Means

This projection is only one part of the decision. Before you adjust your plan, consider:

  • Whether your current plan results in a shortfall or surplus

  • How large the gap is between savings and retirement needs

  • What's driving the shortfall — savings rate, timeline, or spending

  • How closing the gap now compares to closing it later

  • Whether small changes today meaningfully shrink the shortfall
