A computer-executable method for financial retirement planning that provides a comparative evaluation of a plurality of health care funding alternatives. The comparative evaluation enables individuals to select one or more funding alternatives appropriate to their particular set of circumstances. The method commences by calculating overall cash flow for an individual, a couple, and/or a family during retirement. Based upon this cash flow, an amount representing an affordable heath care insurance premium is determined. Next, a comparison of projected retirement finances is provided. This comparison provides (a) financial projections assuming that long-term health care will not be required, (b) financial projections if long-term health care is required, but the individual is not covered by insurance, and (c) financial projections if long-term health care is required, and the individual is covered by insurance. The financial projections include a level of attainable retirement spending per week, month, and/or year. Optionally, the projections include a low-cost estimate, an average cost estimate, and a high-cost estimate for the expenses of long-term health care and/or health care insurance.
