Use a range of assumptions instead of one expected return, inflation rate, salary path, or interest rate. Include a conservative case, shorten overly precise horizons.

Use a range of assumptions instead of one expected return, inflation rate, salary path, or interest rate.

Scenarios illustrate possibilities; they do not assign reliable probabilities or guarantee an outcome.
