Step 1/4

Household

First, tell us about your household. How many people are you creating retirement income for? Just for yourself? Or you and another person, such as a spouse or partner?
Start Over
Step 2/4

Age & Retirement

What is your age? What is the age of your spouse or partner, if applicable? Are you currently retired? This will help determine when you will start taking income from Earned Income (Social Security, Pension) and your accumulated savings.
Start Over
Step 3/4

Income

What is your current monthly income from all sources, including withdrawals from savings, if that is used for your ongoing lifestyle?
How much of this monthly income comes from Earned Income, such as Social Security benefits, pension payments and other lifetime sources? If you are not collecting these, how much do you anticipate you will receive from these sources when you do? A best guess is fine.
Start Over
Step 4/4

Assets

What is the current total amount of your liquid assets? Include stocks, bonds, mutual funds, bank accounts, retirement savings accounts – all savings that can easily be converted to cash. Do not include the value of your home(s), car, etc. A best guess is fine.
