This is actually very cool! It's interesting to play around with strategies for using your retirement income, e.g.

  0.02 * [Savings]
with the idea of making your overall income path as stable as possible.

Yep, that's why I built it!

There are some great retirement calculators out there (e.g. firecalc), but I wanted a sandbox where I could explore different strategies and heuristics.
