How this Inflation Calculator works

This tool applies an inflation rate to a sum of money to show its future purchasing power, highlighting the importance of investing to beat inflation.

Why this matters for your wealth

Cash loses value every year. If your savings aren't growing by at least the rate of inflation, you are effectively losing wealth. This is the silent killer of retirement plans.
