The exact next step
Knowing you have a retirement shortfall is useless without knowing how to fix it. We engineered a web app that reverse-engineers the exact monthly investment needed.
Standard financial tools are great at delivering bad news. They tell you you're going to run out of money in retirement, hand you a terrifying shortfall figure, and then leave you completely alone to figure out what to do about it.
We took a completely different path. The Big Number app doesn't just calculate where you're heading. If you're falling short, the system works backwards to tell you the precise dollar amount you need to invest each month to close the gap.
The dead end diagnosis
CFOmum provides straightforward financial education for Australians wanting to build wealth. They help everyday people understand their money, navigate their superannuation, and set realistic goals for a comfortable retirement without relying on expensive planners.
Most calculators stop at the shortfall. They identify the exact size of the gap but offer zero guidance on how to bridge it.
Knowing you are half a million dollars short is terrifying. Without an action plan, that fear turns into pure inaction.
Reverse engineering the fix
A user finishes the assessment and learns they are on track to meet their target. Instead of a dead end, the app provides a clear breakdown of their financial position and reinforces their current strategy to stay on track.
Clear Instructions
The final screen offers total clarity. If a user is falling behind, they get a single, actionable monthly figure they can set up as an automatic transfer right away.
Working Backwards
The codebase runs the entire projection in reverse. It takes the shortfall and calculates the required monthly investment, accounting for real returns until age 67.
