Monte Carlo Retirement Calculator

Test your retirement plan against thousands of possible scenarios. See your real probability of success with Monte Carlo simulation.

What is Monte Carlo Simulation?

Monte Carlo simulation runs your retirement plan through thousands of different market scenarios to calculate your probability of success. Instead of hoping for average returns, you'll see exactly how likely your plan is to work.

Each simulation tests different sequences of market returns, inflation rates, and market conditions - just like real life. The result? Your personal probability of never running out of money.

Why It Matters for Your Retirement

Sequence of Returns Risk

Poor returns early in retirement can devastate your plan, even if long-term averages are good.

Market Volatility Reality

Markets don't give steady returns. Monte Carlo tests your plan against real market behaviour.

Confidence in Your Plan

Know your probability of success and make adjustments before you retire.
