#2Impressive. I imagine lots effort has been put into making the user interface as clean as possible.
It's a pleasure to fiddle with the parameters and see the impact on the curves.
The only downside (for me at least) is that I live in UK. And my pension plan is not in $$$.

#4How come I can't say how many major expenditures I'm planning? I got to put 2 kids through college and buy a house.

Why does a retirement calculator need that functionality? Its for retirement savings, not savings in general.

I have the same issue, if we could change the percentages we could ignore the dollar signs.

#9Great interface, but I would find it more useful I could pick an estimate rate of return for my investments and choose the rate of inflation. It's also be useful for there to be a "max out 401k" button for how much I want to contribute.

#10Does this assume that I'll live forever, or that I'll die some day?
