OnTarget™ Feature
Every expense. Every category. Connected directly to your retirement projections. Know what retirement will actually cost - because you've mapped it out.
"What's your annual spending?" That's what most retirement calculators ask. One number. As if your mortgage, groceries, healthcare, and travel all cost the same and never change.
But your mortgage pays off at 62. Medicare starts at 65. Healthcare costs rise faster than groceries. Travel is heavy early in retirement, then slows down.
You need a real budget - not a guess.
Nine categories cover your complete spending picture. Classify each expense as a Need, Want, or Splurge to understand your true essentials.
Your budget at 55 won't match your budget at 75. ReadyAimRetire lets you specify when each expense starts and ends.
Every expense has a start age and end age. Your projections reflect reality - not a static number that never changes.

Healthcare doesn't inflate at the same rate as groceries. ReadyAimRetire lets you set inflation rates per expense for realistic projections.
This isn't just a budgeting tool. Your budget connects directly to retirement simulations. Withdrawal calculations use your actual spending - not a guess.
Change an expense in your budget and watch your retirement projections update instantly. Everything is connected.
