What this calculator projects
This net worth projection calculator estimates how your starting net worth, monthly contributions, expected return, and time horizon could compound toward a target such as $1M.
How net worth grows over time
Net worth grows when assets increase, debts decrease, and new savings are added. Compounding can help, but the result depends on your return assumption and how consistently you add capital.
Example: When will I hit $1M?
Enter your current net worth, monthly contribution, expected annual return, projection years, and a $1M target. The calculator estimates whether and when that milestone appears inside the projection.
What assumptions matter most
Starting net worth, contribution rate, expected return, and time are the biggest drivers. Use conservative assumptions and compare a few cases instead of relying on one optimistic projection.
How to use this with rental property investing
Rental property equity can be part of net worth, but rentals also have debt, expenses, and cash-flow risk. If rentals are part of your plan, model rental-specific equity, debt, and cash flow.
FAQ
How do I calculate when I will hit $1M net worth?+
Start with current net worth, add expected monthly contributions, apply an expected return assumption, and project month by month until the balance reaches $1M.
What return assumption should I use?+
Use a realistic assumption for your asset mix and run several cases. A conservative case can be more useful for planning than a single optimistic estimate.
Should I include home equity in net worth?+
Home equity is commonly included in net worth, but it may be less liquid than cash or investments. You can run the calculator with and without home equity for comparison.
How do monthly contributions affect net worth?+
Monthly contributions add capital directly and can compound over time. Increasing contributions can materially change target timing, especially over long horizons.
Can rental property equity be included in net worth?+
Yes. Rental equity is generally property value minus debt. Include it carefully, and remember that value estimates, selling costs, taxes, and liquidity can affect real outcomes.
