How It Works
This calculator shows the opportunity cost of one-time purchases. When you spend money on non-essential items, you're not just spending the dollar amount - you're also giving up the potential future value that money could have generated if invested.
We use a conservative 10% average annual return based on the historical performance of the S&P 500 index. Remember that investing involves risk, and past performance doesn't guarantee future results.
