📉 Asset vs. Retirement Expense
🎲 Monte Carlo Simulation: Retirement Asset Range
Monte Carlo results include volatility drag and sequence risk. By default, post-retirement return volatility is set to 60% of the pre-retirement level — e.g., 12% → 7.2%. The median (P50) therefore reflects a realistic long-term path and can sit below the straight-line deterministic case.
⚠️ Depletion Risk Summary (Based on 300 Monte Carlo Simulations)
- 0.0% chance of running out of money by age 75
- 0.0% chance by age 85
- 0.0% chance by age 90
Assumes current savings, asset, CPP, expenses, and retirement age remain fixed. Market returns and inflation are randomly varied in each simulation.

Allocate your current assets across these three accounts.
The total here should match your current portfolio balance.
ⓘ
Total allocated: $0
Pre-retirement contribution split: Each pre-retirement year we deposit savings in this order
TFSA → RRSP → Taxable. Amounts below are annual targets; Taxable is auto-computed as
Monthly Savings × 12 − TFSA − RRSP.
ⓘ
Tip: If TFSA + RRSP exceeds Monthly Savings × 12, we’ll use TFSA first, then RRSP, and set Taxable to $0 for that year.
Savings grow each pre-retirement year by your Annual Saving Increase Rate (%)
and are then split in this order TFSA → RRSP → Taxable.
ⓘ
TFSA cap grows automatically from $7,000 in 2025 by ≈2.1%/yr for 2026+.
We apply that cap before RRSP and Taxable in the yearly split.
ⓘ
Common inputs (example):
OAS Monthly ≈ $800 starting at 65;
Clawback threshold ≈ $90,000/yr;
Clawback rate 15%;
RRIF start age 72.
Check Index OAS to grow OAS with inflation. Adjust to your year/province.
Example only: ~$57,375 → ~14.5%; ~$114,750 → ~20.5%; income above that typically ~26–32% depending on province/territory.

Use Taxable Drag (%) to include ongoing tax on taxable investment income.
RRIF-min taxes still show under “Tax paid from Taxable (overlay)”.

| Eligible dividends | 0.000 | |||
| Interest (incl. foreign withholding) | 0.000 | |||

| Implied Taxable Drag d = Absolute Drag ÷ Return Rate | 0.00% | |||
Allocation is the share of your Taxable balance in that stream (total ≤ 100%).
Yield is the annual % paid/realized on that slice (e.g., 5% dividend yield;
for realized gains, enter the % of that slice you expect to realize this year —
for example, realizing $50k on a $200k growth slice = 25%).
For each row we compute
Allocation × Yield × Effective Rate to get that row’s
contribution to Absolute Drag (% of the taxable balance). Summing rows gives total
Absolute Drag. We then divide Absolute Drag by your Return Rate to get the model’s
Taxable Drag (%), which is applied to Taxable growth only.
Example (common inputs): 60% equities @ 2% yield taxed 10% → 0.12%; 40% bonds @ 4% yield taxed 30% → 0.48%.
Absolute Drag = 0.60%. With an 8% return, Taxable Drag = 0.60 ÷ 8 = 7.5%.
Applied each retirement year (unless RRIF minimum is explicitly enabled).
