MONTE CARLO SIMULATION
Running Monte Carlo Simulation: This tool uses probabilistic modeling to project thousands of possible investment outcomes. For more information about Monte Carlo simulation, visit the Monte Carlo method wiki.
Typical range: 5-10% for balanced portfolios
Typical range: 10-20% for stocks, 5-10% for bonds
Maximum: 50 years
More simulations = more accurate but slower (max 5000)
Calculate probability of reaching this target
Geometric Brownian Motion: More realistic, balances can't go negative
