How much will my Traditional IRA be worth at retirement?

Use this calculator to compute the amount you can save in a tax-deferred Traditional IRA. Contributions to your Traditional IRA are usually tax deductible now, but you pay taxes when you withdraw the funds in retirement.

You will save $148,268.75 over 20 years. If you are in a 28.000 % tax bracket when you retire, this will be worth $106,753.50 after paying taxes.

If you or your spouse retire prior to age 60, a 10% penalty will be incurred. The penalty adjusted savings amount would be $91,926.63.

Your actual qualifying contribution may differ significantly from the amounts listed above (for reasons such as income, filing status, employer benefits, and more). We strongly recommend that you consult your tax advisor before contributing to a retirement program.
