Retirement costs estimator

Our Costs Estimator will give you an idea of what your total outgoing costs will be in retirement. You have two options that you can explore:

1) The Quick Guide. This guide just takes into account your current income. Based on this information alone it will give you a quick indication of what your costs might be in retirement. 

2) The Rough Guide. This guide takes into account a lot more information such as where you live and your specific costs. It takes a little longer but it will give you a better estimate of what your costs might be in retirement.  

And, if you use our Income Estimator you’ll be able to compare your income and costs to see whether you’re in good shape to retire.
