Just like you wouldn't buy a car without a test drive, you should put your retirement plan through a trial run. Discover how to simulate your retirement lifestyle, stress-test your financial strategies, and make any adjustments before you actually retire.

Test driving lets you check comfort and performance. Try living on your projected retirement budget and see if that fits your lifestyle needs.

Test drive in different conditions. Stress-test your portfolio against different market scenarios and assess the right level of risk for you.

Test drive multiple scenarios to compare options. What should you do for Social Security or health care? Comparing your options allows you to make the best choice for your retirement plan.
