What is financial independence planning?

Working out whether what you have saved, plus what you will save, can cover what you will spend for the rest of your life — accounting for inflation, investment returns and one-off costs like education. Nivritee projects this year by year rather than applying a rule of thumb.

Does the country I live in change the answer?

Substantially. Inflation, investment returns, medical and education cost growth, and statutory savings schemes differ by country, and a figure is only meaningful against the conditions where the money is actually spent. Nivritee plans in the currency and assumptions of the country you will be living in, across eleven markets.

What if I live in one country and plan to settle in another?

That case is built in. You say where you earn and spend today, where you will be living when you stop working, and when you move. The second fixes the single currency every figure is reported in; the first is what your spending today is judged against. Income, expenses, loans, deposits and holdings each keep their own country, dates and currency, and are converted once, before anything is computed.

How long does it take to get a first answer?

About two minutes. A country and seven figures produce a complete projection, and you add detail afterwards against a result you can already see rather than before you see anything.

Do I need an account?

Yes. You sign in with Google or with an email address and password, so your plan is saved to your account and is still there when you come back — on any device, without re-entering anything. With Google, we ask for your name and email address and nothing else.

Can anyone at Nivritee see what I enter?

No. There is no internal tool that displays a plan, because one was never built. The administrative panel shows usage counts and never a figure, and no email we send carries an amount, a rate or a verdict from a plan.

Is this financial advice?

No. Nivritee is an informational planning tool and does not constitute financial, tax or legal advice. Every figure it produces is a projected estimate under stated assumptions, not a prediction of what will happen.

Can I earn in one country and settle in another?

Yes. Say where you earn and spend today, where you will settle, and when you move. Each row keeps its own country, dates and currency, and converts once.

Yes — the plan is built for it. You tell Nivritee where you earn and spend today, where you will be living once you are financially independent, and when you move. The country you settle in fixes the single currency every figure is reported in; each income, cost and loan keeps its own country, dates and currency.

How to set it up

Open Your Location.
Under Where will you be living once you’re financially independent?, choose the country you will settle in.
Under Where do you earn and spend today?, choose where you live now.
Answer When will you move to …? — When I stop working, At an age, or I already live there.
On each income or cost that applies only before or after the move, open Where & when and set Where, Starts and Ends — for example, Ends: When you move.

What each country decides

The country you settle in fixes the plan’s currency, its default rates and the savings schemes it lists.
Where you live today is where new income and expense rows start, and — where Nivritee has typical figures for it — what today’s spending is compared with.
A row abroad rises at its own country’s prices until it ends. The life after the move is priced where you will live it.
The financial freedom index still compares you with households in the country you will settle in, and the card says which.
