Step 1 of 4 · Income
What money comes in?
Add each source of income — CPP, OAS, pension, wages, anything regular. You can add as many as you need.
Press ↵ to add each source. The frequency above applies to the next one you add.
Step 2 of 3 · Anchor a Cost
What's the cost you're planning around?
Enter the biggest fixed cost you're considering — rent is the most common one. We'll work backwards from there.
Based on the 50% rule for housing needs
Most financial guidelines suggest housing costs no more than 30–50% of take-home pay. We use 50% as a starting point — you can adjust this.
Step 2 of 4 · Needs
What are your fixed monthly needs?
These are your non-negotiables — rent, utilities, phone, groceries. Add them one at a time, or use the quick-add chips below.
Quick add:
