Survival Score Calculator

A quick, honest read on how long your money lasts — measured against your liquidbuffer only, at today's income and spend, with no growth assumed. See your runway in months and years, and a plain-English take. No signup, nothing stored. It's an estimate, not a forecast.

Estimated survival score21/100≈ 21% of your 50-yr horizon, no growth assumed
Annual draw from savings$70,000
Cash buffer (liquid)$750,000
Runway at today's numbers10 yr 8 mo (128 mo)
Years to plan for (to age 95)50
Thin on these numbers. At $70,000 a year out of savings, your buffer lasts about 10 yr 8 mo — well short of the 50-year horizon before any growth. Trimming spend, adding income, or growing the buffer all move this; see what your plan actually needs.

In plain English: Spending $160,000 a year against $90,000 of income means about $70,000 a year has to come from savings. Your $750,000 buffer covers that for roughly 10 yr 8 mo — which is about 21% of the 50-year horizon to age 95, with no investment growth assumed.

A quick estimate — your full Velira plan goes much deeper

This is one no-growth arithmetic line. Your full Velira plan stress-tests this across 40,000 simulated futures and 10 market signals — so the odds you act on are pressure-tested, not a single flattering number.

This is an illustrative estimate for education only — not financial, tax, or legal advice, and not a forecast. It is a single, no-growth arithmetic projection from the numbers you enter: it assumes no investment return, no inflation, and no sequence-of-returns risk, and it is notVelira's real Monte-Carlo survival engine (which runs 40,000 simulated futures across 10 market signals).
