How the simulator works
- You describe the habit. Plain English — “I save $10 a day”, “I sleep 5 hours”, “I walk 10,000 steps”. The app extracts the number and the behaviour.
- A deterministic model runs. No AI guessing: compound interest formulas, calorie balance, sleep-debt accumulation, practice-hour thresholds. The same input always gives the same answer.
- You get a timeline, not a number. Day 1, week 1, month 1, year 1, year 10 — with a chart, the milestones, and every assumption written down so you can disagree with it.
Questions about this tool
What is a "what happens if" simulator?
It is a calculator that shows consequences over time instead of a single number. You describe a daily habit — saving money, sleeping less, walking more — and it projects the result after a week, a month, a year and ten years, with the assumptions shown.
Is it free?
Yes. Every simulation is free, with no account and no sign-up. The site is supported by advertising.
How accurate are the results?
The maths is exact; the inputs are averages. Money uses standard compound-interest formulas, calories use the 3,500 kcal per pound convention with an adaptation factor, and health timelines summarise commonly published findings. Every page lists its assumptions.
Can I share a result?
Yes — every scenario has its own permanent URL, so you can send someone the exact simulation you ran.
