Your money, right now

Two questions. Everything else in this tool is built on the answers, so take a minute over them.

Monthly cash flow

Nothing you type here leaves your phone. We store your email and nothing else — no income, no savings, no figures.

What actually lands in your account — after tax, SSS, PhilHealth and Pag-IBIG are taken out. If your pay changes month to month, use a normal month, not your best one.
Everything that goes out every month — food, rent or amortisation, electricity and water, transport, school fees, internet, loan and credit card payments, help sent to family. Do not count money you save. We ask about savings later.
Take-home income
Less: monthly expenses
Net remaining cash

Fill both fields above and this works itself out.

Both fields are needed before you can go on.

If tomorrow goes wrong

Two different things can go wrong, and they cost different amounts. So this pillar has two bars.

Bar one — months of living expenses

Cash you could reach this week, to keep the household running while income stops. Money in a bank, a digital bank, or an e-wallet. Not MP2, not a pre-terminated time deposit, not the car — pre-terminating a long fund destroys the reason you opened it.

4 months
5 months
6 months

Based on the expenses you entered, that target works out at —.

Savings and e-wallet balances only. Enter 0 if there is none — that is a starting line, not a verdict.

Bar two — a medical event

A hospital admission is not paid out of the same money that buys groceries — but it will empty that money first if nothing else covers it. So it gets its own bar.

₱130,000Common surgical admission
₱1,700,000Critical illness — heart bypass

Both figures are averaged from published Philippine hospital rates — Makati Medical Center, St. Luke's and a Level 2 private hospital. Hospital-sourced, never insurer-sourced.

The maximum benefit written on your card each year — company or personally bought. Enter 0 if you have none. Company HMO ends when the job ends.
Money you would only touch for a hospital bill. Keep it separate from the figure above so neither gets counted twice.

Retirement

The only pillar you cannot borrow for. There is no loan for a retirement you did not fund.

What you want, and when

In today's money — what that life would cost if you were living it this month. We handle the rest.

Your SSS

SSS is counted, always. It is the floor under everything else — but a floor is not a plan.

The count of months, not pesos. Roughly 12 for each year you paid — check My.SSS for the exact figure. A lifetime pension needs 120.
From your My.SSS account.
Above ₱20,000, SSS stops counting. Your pension is worked out on the first ₱20,000 only. Anything above that is diverted into the Mandatory MySSS Pension Booster — the fund SSS used to call WISP — which pays out separately and is not part of the pension figure below.
Under 21 and unmarried on the day you retire — not today. Each one adds 10% to the pension, up to five.

What you have put aside yourself

Money you are keeping specifically for retirement. Not your emergency fund — that one is already counted, and counting it twice would flatter you.

What you are actually putting in this month — not what you intend to. The plan comes later.
Bank or cash0% assumed
Pag-IBIG MP26.72% 12-yr average
Pension Booster6.83% in 2025

Bank savings assume no growth — the honest default, because we will not credit you with a return you are not earning. MP2 and the Voluntary MySSS Pension Booster rates are the published historical figures, not guarantees.

These are not either-or. Pag-IBIG and SSS are separate agencies, and being in one does not close the other — money can go to both at the same time. Pick the one holding most of your savings for the projection above; your report lists both so the choice stays yours.

You are heading for a lump sum, not a pension. On these figures you reach posted contributions by retirement, and SSS pays a monthly pension only from 120. Below that it hands over one cheque and the monthly income is zero. Paying the remaining months is the single highest-return move available to you.
Fill every field above to see your retirement pillar.

Worked out from the SSS benefit formula under RA 11199, including the ₱1,000 monthly addition. Future pesos are converted back to today's money at 3.6% inflation — the Philippine ten-year average, 2016 to 2025 (PSA and BSP). You can change that rate on your score page.

Your one big goal

A house, a business, a move abroad, a wedding, a car. One goal. The one that would change things.

The goal

This is a fund you want ready — a peso amount sitting there on the date you need it. Not a guess at what things will cost by then.

The amount you want sitting there on the day you need it.
Only money earmarked for this goal. Not your emergency fund, not your retirement savings — both are already counted.

Your Financial Checkpoint Score

The share of what you will need that your current path actually delivers. Not a grade. A measurement.

Financial Checkpoint Score

Complete the pages before this one and your score appears here.

What makes it up

Three pillars, weighted equally, each capped at 100%. A full emergency fund cannot hide an empty retirement plan, and it does not work the other way round either.

The Philippine ten-year average is 3.6% (PSA and BSP, 2016–2025). Recent years have run hotter. This rate is applied to your retirement figure, where you told us a standard of living. It is not applied to your goal or college funds — you chose those amounts yourself.

What to do with what is left

Three levers over your net remaining cash. They start in the order the financial planning pyramid prescribes — liquidity and protection before accumulation. That is a starting point, not a rule: the right order changes with your life stage and your circumstances. Move them wherever you like, as often as you like.

Money to allocate each month

Your emergency fund is measured two years out. Everything else is measured on its own date — the year each child starts college, the year of your goal, the year you retire.

Save your report

Your report is created here on your phone and saved by you. It is never sent to us and never emailed — none of the figures you entered leave this device.

Printed on every page. This report is yours — it is not a document for anyone else to hand around.
