Your Freedom Number
Most owners chase the highest price without ever naming the number that would actually set them free. Define the life first, and the number it requires. Then you'll know whether your exit funds your freedom — or just ends your job.
The life you're funding
What it costs to live the way you intend to after the sale — not what you spend now, what you'll choose then.
Income that already covers part of it
Dollars arriving each year that aren't drawn from your exit proceeds. These shrink the capital you need.
One-time goals to set aside
Lump sums that sit outside the income engine — money that has to exist on day one, not generate yearly cash.
Does your exit clear it?
What you expect to keep after debt, fees, and taxes. Don't have that figure? Run the What You Actually Keep calculator first — the headline price won't do.

Enter your numbers to see the capital your life actually requires.
A funded number is necessary, not sufficient. The owners who struggle after a sale rarely run out of money. They run out of purpose. Build the number — then build what it's for.
Send me the full picture
I'll email your freedom number, the coverage gap, and the few levers that close it fastest. No newsletter you didn't ask for.
This is a planning estimate, not financial, investment, or tax advice — and not a promise of any outcome. The withdrawal-rate method is a simplifying assumption; it doesn't account for sequence-of-returns risk, market downturns, inflation surprises, taxes on investment income, or how long you'll actually live. A lower withdrawal rate is more conservative. Work with a qualified financial advisor to build a real post-sale plan before relying on any figure here.
