Plug in your numbers and see roughly the age it could run out — then see what changes if you spend more, retire a year later, or the market has a bad year.

Takes about 2 minutes. Educational tool, not financial advice.
Super statements are full of numbers. Not many of them answer your actual question.
What you usually get
- “Your fund returned 7.2% p.a. net of fees”
- A PDF with 40 pages of disclosure
- A $300/hr adviser meeting to ask one question
- Calculators that assume you already know the jargon
What Glidma Retirement shows you
- “Your money runs out at age 84 — here's why”
- The dollar cost of every choice, right next to the percentage
- A plain-language scenario you can explore yourself, free
- Every figure dated, sourced, and flagged if it may need reconfirming

What Glidma Retirement is — and isn’t.
Educational, not advice
Glidma Retirement is a scenario tool to help you understand your options. It doesn't know your full financial picture and isn't a substitute for an independent licensed financial adviser.
Every figure, dated and sourced
Super and pension rules change every 1 July. Every number you see carries a "current as of" date and a source — and we flag anything that may be due for reconfirming.
Dollars over percentages
If a screen shows a percentage, it shows the dollar amount right next to it. If a choice has a cost, we show what that costs you — in dollars you'll actually see in your account.
Your data stays yours
Your figures are used only to calculate your scenario. They are not sold, licensed, or shared with insurers, funds, or advertisers — including as aggregated or de-identified data.
See how long your own super lasts — takes about two minutes.
