How it works

How to use

Enter your target amount, your current savings, how much you plan to add each month, and an expected annual interest rate. The tool shows how many months it takes to reach the goal.

Formula

Each month: balance = (balance × (1 + annual rate ÷ 12)) + monthly saving. The count stops when balance reaches the goal.

Example

Goal 50,000, starting with 5,000, saving 2,000/month at 3% annual interest → reached in about 21 months.

When it helps

Planning a holiday, a home deposit, an emergency fund, or any fixed savings target with a clear deadline.

What do you want to do next?

Next, calculate percentages or electricity costs if you want to free up room for a bigger monthly saving plan.

FAQ

Is the interest guaranteed?+

No. The interest rate is only an assumption for planning. Real returns can be both higher and lower.

Why show months instead of years?+

Months make it easier to connect the goal to a concrete monthly saving habit and a clear milestone.

What if the goal cannot be reached?+

Then we show that the plan is not sufficient with the current inputs. Raise the monthly saving amount, increase the starting balance, or lower the goal.
