Re: Investing Style
Hello, Your question is a good one and gets right to the heart of one of the biggest challenges in using this type of tool. No one really knows what the future will bring in terms of the return/standard deviation that we're likely to experience over the next 20-30 years. The values associated with t...

Re: Printing issues
Here are a couple of suggestions. 1) See if there are any resolution settings that you can adjust for the printer in the print properties window. I've seen cases where for some reason the printout doesn't look right when the resolution is set to 300, but it looks perfect at 600. Unfortunately, this ...

Re: Planner launch takes me to Oracle
Hello,
Thanks for your question. The planner requires Oracle's Java plugin to be installed in your browser. The launch page checks if Java is installed, and if it isn't, you're automatically redirected to Oracle's website where you can get the latest version of Java.

Re: New Investment Increases
All of the outputs from the simulation are shown in today's value dollars rather than in inflated dollars. My feeling is that displaying the outputs in constant value dollars makes it easier to interpret and understand the results.
Hope that helps,

Re: custom button
I'm a little confused what you mean by the 'custom button' but I'll take a guess at an answer. The additional inputs window allows you to override the main planner inputs with yearly granularity. When you specify a rate of return in additional inputs, you have to specify a start and end year, which ...

Re: App for iPad?
Unfortunately, there isn't a plan for ipad support. The sad reality is that both Apple and Google don't support Java in their mobile operating systems. That is, of course, a big barrier to getting the app ported to mobile. It likely means nearly a complete re-write. I've read that there are some too...
