How to use the result

This estimate supports planning and does not replace personalized financial advice.

Does a negative result mean I need another job?

Not necessarily. The gap may also be reduced by renegotiating fixed costs, debt, or the savings timeline.

Why include a safety margin?

It prevents the plan from depending on a perfect month with no unexpected costs.

Should irregular income be included?

Use a conservative monthly average, preferably based on the last six to twelve months.
