goalGetter, that its new iPad application from Advisor Software Inc, is available to consumers for free. The app will help people visualize financial goals such as buying a home, saving for college or planning for retirement.
Leveraging the goal icon "drag and drop" approach to building a lifetime goal plan introduced through Advisor Software's goalgami personal financial management website, goalGetter also includes an actionable savings plan.
After consumers drag the goal icons onto the savings timeline, goalGetter computes the affordability of the plan based on resource inputs. If a plan is not deemed affordable, goalGetter will inform the consumer how much money they would need to set aside per month in order to pay for the goal. goalGetter also utilizes a unique feature that allows consumers to adjust goals and make them fit their respective budgets.
Another feature allows consumers to email their goalGetter findings to others, such as their spouse or financial advisor, so they can work together to create a more detailed savings plan and objective. The app encourages consumers to create different future scenarios, as well as visualize how realistic it is to achieve goals and how to adjust plans to meet certain goals.
The goalGetter app builds on the success of goalgami, a goal-oriented online personal finance tool that Advisor Software launched in March 2010.
