It took a while to get here. But this is combined between my wife and I, and includes 401k contributions, contributions to our IRAs and taxable accounts.
Start where you can and increase your contributions every year, a decade from today you’ll be surprised how much it has increased.
Every year when my income goes up, the first thing I do is increase our contribution rates. 401k’s get ticked up 1%. Taxable accounts get at least 30% of our merit increases.
Small changes in the short term grow into big changes in the long term.
The more I thought about this it might have been an issue when you copied the file. You should have seen a prompt asking if you’d like to copy the macro as well, and maybe if you clicked no, it never copied. That’s why I was curious if you can even see it under extensions.
Well that’s not good… sometimes a macro will fail to work the first time you click on it, then Google will prompt you to allow the macro permission to edit your workbook. This is often the case for me when I copy a spreadsheet.
If that wasn’t the case for you. Could you look under the “Extensions” drop down menu, under “Macros”, to see if there is a macro called “Yield Calculation”. It should be at the bottom of the menu.
If you see it there please try activating it by clicking on it.
Let me know if you still can’t get it to work. Or if you don’t even see the macro in the extensions menu. If that’s the case the macro was lost during the copying process.
How can you invest 30k x year?😅 I envy you

Hi! I tweaked some numbers in the greens fields, but it says ‘script function YieldCalculation can’t be found..

I did reopen, changed numbers in other (green) fields..got the same message. I might try again later, and try your extensions-solution. Cheers!
