Inflation is the quiet killer

The income you want today will cost far more by the time you retire. This calculator inflates your target income to future money, works out the corpus (lump sum) needed to fund a 25-year retirement from it, then back-solves the monthly investment required to build that corpus.

Start early — it does the heavy lifting

Because of compounding, starting ten years earlier can roughly halve the monthly amount you need. The single most powerful retirement lever is time, not return.
