Rating: TBD / 5.0

Year Founded: 2000

FIRECalc is a retirement planning tool designed to help users determine how long their retirement savings will last under various market conditions. It uses historical returns and inflation data dating back to 1871 to calculate the chance of success during retirement. The core functionality of FIRECalc involves taking the user’s starting portfolio value and annual spending amount, then calculating how this combination would have performed throughout every year for which market data is available. Users can adjust parameters such as spending levels, portfolio size, retirement duration, and asset allocation between equities and fixed income to see how these changes affect the longevity of their retirement funds.
