Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 4% rule?
The 4% rule suggests you can withdraw 4% of your nest egg in the first year of retirement (adjusting for inflation each year) and have a high probability of not running out of money over 30 years.
Should I include CPP and OAS?
Yes. The desired income entered here should be the amount above what you expect from CPP and OAS. The max CPP at 65 is about $16,375/yr and OAS about $8,560/yr in 2026.
What return should I assume?
A balanced portfolio has historically returned 6-8% before inflation. Conservative estimates of 5-6% are prudent for planning. During retirement, a lower 4-5% is common.
