Retirement Savings Calculator
Are you looking for a simple retirement calculator? I got swamped as I began looking for retirement planning calculators and software. What I really wanted was a Microsoft Excel ® spreadsheet for calculating a simple annuity (interest earned plus annual payments), comparing the total amount invested up until retirement to the amount earned in interest. I couldn't find what I wanted, so I went ahead and created my own, which you can download for free below. This page also provides links to other retirement calculators and software. For calculating how much you may need saved at retirement, try the Annuity Calculator.
