Will I have enough in retirement? Building a Personal Retirement Spending Plan will answer all of your questions, protect you against dips in the market, and from life events that are sure to arise. Knowing what your retirement income will look like and how you will pay for everything is just what you need to confidently head into your retirement.


Keep more of your money in retirement

You’ve been contributing to your RRSP for years, but once you’re retired, it’s important to know how and when to withdraw that money so you can keep more of your money long term.

Assumptions
Calculator uses an Expected Investment Growth Rate of 2.8% calculated by subtracting the Rate of Inflation (2.1%)* from the Investment Rate of Return (4.9%)**. This growth rate is used to project the investment balance each year until retirement, considering annual contributions at the end of each year.

Annual income needed in retirement is determined by subtracting annual savings, the Annual OAS Benefit, and an estimated Annual CPP Benefit based on income levels.

Annual replacement income needed in retirement is multiplied by a Replacement Income Multiple (20x) and compared to the total investment balance at retirement. If the investment balance exceeds this multiple, the individual is considered on track for retirement savings.
