About SmartRetireCalc
SmartRetireCalc is a lightweight retirement projection tool that helps you explore year-by-year outcomes for spending, taxes, Roth conversions, Social Security, and RMDs.
What it’s good for
- Quick “what-if” scenarios (retire age, SS start age, returns, inflation).
- Testing Roth conversion strategies (none, fixed amount, fill-to-bracket).
- Seeing a simple timeline of balances and estimated taxes.
What it is not
- Not financial, tax, or legal advice.
- Not a replacement for a full tax program or a professional planner.
- Not a guarantee of future performance (returns and laws change).
Roadmap (high level)
- More detailed taxable account modeling (capital gains, dividends).
- Medicare IRMAA awareness (when applicable).
- Better spouse modeling (separate cashflows + combined taxes).
- Save/load scenarios and compare scenarios side-by-side.
