Important Considerations:

  • These projections are mathematical estimates based on the inflation rates you provided. Actual future costs can and likely will vary due to numerous economic, market, and personal factors.
  • Inflation rates for specific goods and services (e.g., healthcare, education, housing) can differ significantly from the general consumer price index or your overall average estimate. Using category-specific rates improves accuracy.
  • This tool is for planning and informational purposes. It's recommended to review and update your financial plans and projections regularly.
  • For comprehensive financial planning, especially for long-term goals like retirement, consider consulting with a qualified financial advisor.
