Common Mistakes to Avoid

Assuming retirement happens on January 1 of the retirement year

Fix: Retirement is typically reached on your birthday in the retirement year. The calculator projects the date to your actual birth month and day.

Using the wrong retirement age for your country

Fix: Full retirement age varies by country and birth year (e.g. 67 in the US for those born after 1960). Check your local rules before planning.
