Savings Rate Calculator: The Number That Predicts Financial Independence
Your savings rate — the percentage of your income you save and invest — is one of the strongest predictors of when you can achieve financial independence. Income matters less than you think. Someone earning $60,000 and saving 40% will reach FI faster than someone earning $120,000 and saving 10%. This calculator shows where you stand.

Include employer matching in your savings rate calculation — it is genuinely part of your savings, and many people underestimate how much it moves the needle. A 5% match on a 10% contribution means you are effectively saving 15% of your gross pay.
