Increase scheduling precision

In order to increase accuracy, I’d recommend PL allow specific date-based entries (start/end points), as opposed to the far more general year-based entries. For example, PL may know I’m retiring in 2028, but there’s a huge different in January and December of 2028. The latter date would include 11 more months of salary in the math, not to mention the 11-month deferment of drawdowns from investments. It also affects eventual Social Security, although not to a huge degree. Ultimately, this level of precision would help set PL apart from OnTrajectory which also unfortunately limits to entire years–a very imprecise way to plan.

    Yes, adding a month to retirement goal and having plan prorate salary/drawdowns for partial year would be very valuable.

    Definitely allowing month precision would be a significant improvement. I’m holding off on switch from NewRetirement to PL for this exact feature. RSU grants are my specific pain point.

    Having at monthly options for the current year + cashflow is really needed. I don’t think Monthly is needed for future years.
