How much do I need to save each month?
Enter your goal, anything you have already put aside and the date you want to reach it by. The calculator works out the fixed monthly amount that gets you there, and if you add an expected annual return it uses the future value of a regular savings plan so your contributions and their growth are both counted. Leave the return at zero and it simply splits what is left over the months remaining.
Before you set the amount
- The plan assumes you never miss a month. A monthly transfer on payday, set up once, is what makes that true; saving whatever is left at month end almost never is.
- A return you enter is an expectation, not a promise. For a goal within a couple of years, plan at zero return and keep the money somewhere you cannot lose it.
- A distant goal moves. What a house deposit or a car costs in ten years is not what it costs today, so revisit the target rather than the monthly amount.
