Frequently asked questions
What does the financial health score measure?
Five areas: savings rate (up to 25 pts), emergency fund (20 pts), debt-to-income (20 pts), retirement readiness (25 pts), and insurance/estate (10 pts). Total 0–100 with letter grade.
Is 70 a good financial health score?
70–79 is C range—solid foundation with room for growth. Most people score 60–75. Above 80 is strong; below 60 suggests focusing on emergency savings and debt first.
How is retirement readiness scored?
Your retirement savings are compared to an age-based target (e.g., 1x salary by 40, 3x by 50). The multiplier scales with age to reflect compounding timelines.
Does the score consider my age?
Yes. Retirement targets and age-percentile comparisons adjust for age. A 30-year-old with $50K saved scores differently than a 50-year-old with the same amount.
