NovaPlanner Multi-Currency Portfolio & Milestones

Why Investors Prefer NovaPlanner Over Empower & Finary Plus for Retirement Modeling

Empower Personal Dashboard (formerly Personal Capital) requires linking your live brokerage credentials via Plaid/Yodlee and triggers wealth-management sales calls once your portfolio crosses $100,000. Meanwhile, Finary locks its advanced wealth simulator and Monte Carlo projections behind a €149.99/year Finary Plus subscription.

NovaPlanner Interactive Planner Studio lets you enter your balances in 30 seconds without handing over banking passwords or phone numbers. Everything stays in your browser's local storage, supports 14 currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, CHF, CAD), and gives you full drag-and-drop control over retirement ages, real estate purchases, sabbaticals, and market crashes.
