Retirement Calculators and Benefit Estimators

  • Online Benefit Estimator This estimate is based on service and salary provided by you. It is intended to assist with long-term financial planning.

  • Online Purchase Estimator The cost calculation derived from the purchase estimator is based on service and salary information you supply. Your actual service and salary may be different than the information you supply. In this regard, you should not make any final purchase decisions based upon the cost calculation derived from the purchase estimator.

  • "The Ballpark E$timate®" is designed to provide a rough estimate of what you will need to save annually to fund a comfortable retirement. It provides an approximation of projected Social Security benefits and utilizes only one of many possible rates of return on your savings. Ballpark reflects today's dollars and does not account for inflation; therefore, you should recalculate your savings needs on a regular basis and as your salary and circumstances change. You will not want to stop with the Ballpark E$timate®; it is only a first step in the retirement planning process. You will need to do further analysis, either yourself using a more detailed worksheet or computer software, or with the assistance of a financial professional.

We can not and do not guarantee their applicability or accuracy in regards to your individual circumstances. All examples are hypothetical and are for illustrative purposes. We encourage you to seek personalized advice from qualified professionals regarding all personal finance issues.
