About this calculator
Saving a little every month adds up, and interest makes it add up faster. This calculator shows your balance over time and what it is worth once inflation is taken out.
Inflation matters because a large number in the future buys less than the same number today. The extra line shows the balance in today's money.
How it works
- Your balance earns interest each month.
- Your monthly saving is added at the end of the month.
- The inflation figure shrinks the final balance back into today's buying power.
Common questions
- What interest rate should I enter?
- Use the rate your bank or savings account pays. If you are unsure, try a few values to see the range.
- Why show the value after inflation?
- Because prices rise. The real value tells you what your savings could actually buy.
