Why Side-by-Side Comparison Matters
Every investment decision is implicitly a comparison — choosing one plan means foregoing another. The Financial Comparison Suite makes that opportunity cost explicit by projecting two plans on a shared horizon and visualising the wealth gap as it compounds year over year.
How To Read the Chart
- Plan A and Plan B trajectories show projected corpus by year.
- The Wealth Gap series highlights the absolute difference — the divergence widens when one plan's compounding rate or contribution profile dominates the other.
- Switch plan types or tweak rates to instantly see how a 1% rate edge translates to a 7-figure gap over a 20-year horizon — the core insight behind disciplined long-term investing.
