What you need per account

  • Account type β€” from the table above
  • Current balance β€” your balance as of today
  • Owner β€” individual, joint, or beneficiary
  • Asset allocation (optional) β€” your mix of stocks, bonds, and cash as percentages that sum to 100. Defaults to 100% cash if not specified.

Tip

Start with the accounts that matter most β€” your largest retirement account and primary savings. You can always add more later.


Employer match

If you have a 401(k) with an employer match, FinPlan can model that contribution as part of your projections. See Employer Match for details.
