Starting with the calculator on Is that 15% number made up? post from u/dequeued.
I ran with it to add variables for starting age, contribution%, market growth, etc. to model accumulated savings by year.
I also added a model for retirement withdrawals by age with an option to change the withdrawal percentage before and after starting social security benefits.
My spreadsheet is here. I'd love to hear any feedback or criticism any of you have!
Edit: Download a copy of the spreadsheet to enter your own values in the model. Average Social Security benefit payments are the default values on the spreadsheet. You can find your actual benefits to date at www.ssa.gov.
