Kind of like the union promising that "lie flat seats" won't cause us to lose a higher class of service!

Did you forget about this disclaimer on the model? You know, the one that pretty much says the numbers you get are BS?

I’m specifically drawn to this sentence of that disclaimer.

“This product is not offered for the purpose of financial, retirement planning, or legal advice.“

Ok so I’m supposed to make a decision on my retirement with a tool that specifically says it isn’t for retirement planning..
