Treat the output as a planning range, not a guarantee. Dividend policy, taxes, inflation, and market valuation can all change faster than a spreadsheet implies.

Frequently asked questions

How do I estimate a realistic yield?

Base it on the current blended yield of the portfolio you actually plan to hold, not on isolated high-yield outliers.

Does this include dividend growth?

No. This calculator is a current-income snapshot. Use the Dividend FIRE calculator if you want a multi-year projection.

Should tax rate be zero inside retirement accounts?

For qualified retirement accounts, many investors model current dividend taxes at zero, then account for taxes later when evaluating withdrawals.
