Make the tradeoff visible.

Use one consistent set of assumptions for each scenario. That makes the difference easier to understand and gives you a clearer starting point for an important conversation.

What to compare

  • Use the same plan assumptions before comparing retirement dates.
  • Look beyond one percentage to spending, income, and downside scenarios.
  • Use stress tests to identify assumptions worth revisiting.
