Your financial picture
Your financial plan is only useful if it reflects your real life. Waypoint brings your assets, investments, and spending together so you can understand what is changing and how it may affect your path.
Track your assets and liabilities over time, understand what is driving your progress, and see how changes in your net worth may affect your work-optional estimate.
Your investable assets are growing faster than your total spending.
See how your investable assets are divided across accounts and asset types, identify major concentrations, and understand how your allocation fits into your broader financial path.
48% of your investable assets are currently concentrated in US equities.
Track your spending over time, separate essential expenses from flexible spending, and see how your lifestyle affects the amount you may need for work to become optional.
Reducing annual spending by $8,000 could move your estimated work-optional age forward by approximately one year.
