What a Monthly Contribution Is Worth at 65, in Today's Money
Every figure comes from the calculator above, run with nothing saved yet, a 7 percent nominal return and 3 percent inflation, retiring at 65. The figures are the inflation-adjusted balance — what it would buy in today's money — rather than the larger nominal number. Read across a row to see what starting later costs: the gap between starting at 25 and starting at 40 is far wider than the extra fifteen years of payments explains.
