Question about Goals

Given his current savings, income, and expenses, can he achieve his financial goals?

With a return rate of 8%, it is not possible to achieve all his financial goals. By selecting the “Min. Return” the calculated result indicates that a 8.38% annual return rate is needed to accomplish all financial goals.

With an 8% annual return rate, the assets will be insufficient by 2063.

Based on his planning situation and the set priority of goals, the achievable goals are current family expenses, daughter’s education expenses, retirement and annual trip. However, beachside vacation villa cannot be achieved.

Looking at his current actual assets, with an attainment rate of only 67%, it indicates that the current asset situation is not as expected compared to the planned scenario. Therefore, with the current assets, beachside vacation villa can only be achieved at 49%.

In the event of an unfortunate incident involving Ray, would the coverage of five million be sufficient for his family members to fulfill their life dreams?

In Ray’s goals, budgetary expenses and his daughter’s overseas education are considered family responsibilities, requiring a coverage amount of 17,311,992. Currently, the coverage is five million, which is insufficient. In the event of an unfortunate incident, the protection can only cover 43% of family expenses, and there is 0% coverage for the daughter’s overseas education, indicating a complete inability to pursue studies abroad.

Spending two million on a new car – does this impact the family’s ability to achieve their goals?

After purchasing the car, the current asset achievement dropped from 67% to -7%, and expenses significantly exceeded the budget by 198%.

The achievement rates for the goals of buying a house and traveling are 0%, and the retirement goal has decreased from 100% attainment to 97%.
