Turn a target amount into a timeline you can adjust
Amount still needed is your goal minus current savings (floored at zero). Monthly contributions and optional annual interest determine how quickly that gap closes.
Interest is modeled as monthly compounding on the growing balance before each contribution is added—useful for a simple projection, not a bank quote.
An optional target date helps you see whether the estimated completion lands on time. If it finishes late, raise contributions or extend the date.
If both contribution and interest are zero, the goal cannot be reached—add at least one growth path to get a timeline.
FAQ
What is the maximum timeline?
The projection caps at 1,200 months (100 years) to keep the calculator responsive and avoid endless loops.
Why is completion sometimes month/year only?
Without a target date, the estimate shows month and year. With a target date, that exact date is displayed for comparison.
