Free Retirement Planner for the Savage Number

She's written several best-selling books, is on TV monthly, gives seminars and speeches all the time, and writes personal finance articles for several major finance publications weekly. She was one of the influences that got Mike started in the biz back in the mid-'80's (he used to record Nightly Business Report and watch it for breakfast daily, and Terry still has a spot at the end once every few months). Terry is awesome and has helped millions of people around the world better their finances.

Here's a link to directly order her new book, The New Savage Number.

This free Excel-based personal finance and retirement calculator is the solution for people that want something very powerful, accurate, but simple and easy as possible to use. There is a directions sheet on the far right sheet tab, and each input cell also has detailed instructions.

The free Retirement Planner for The Savage Number (the title of her latest book) is just a much scaled-down version of our RP retirement planner (which is a very scaled down version or RWR). Even though most of the power of RP and RWR is stripped out, it still has more value than expensive retirement planners (and sill has more functionality than anything else you can get and use online for free).

It uses a simple interface, backed by a sophisticated and complete methodology of performing Monte Carlo simulations. It takes just a minute to perform a simulation. These simulations can be done online, or the retirement planner can be downloaded to your computer within seconds, at no charge.

It models the impact of everyday decisions on your retirement planning. For example, it's the only retirement planner that quickly answers the question, "How will refinancing my credit card debt from 30% to 15% interest change my retirement picture?"

Nothing has this much power crammed into such a small program (375Kb).

The inputs and results are on the same page, so you can get accurate and meaningful results in one minute.

It's so simple that you don’t have to be a “techie” to use it. Give it a try!

To use the retirement planner online, just click on the link below. To download and use offline, right click, then choose "Save (Target) As..." to save to your hard drive. Then find and open it with Excel
