Realistic markets
Returns with crashes, calm stretches and the occasional bad decade, plus inflation that runs hot for years at a time.
Surveyor plays out thousands of possible futures for your household: good markets and bad, high inflation and low, a long life and a shorter one. It shows you the odds your money lasts, and what changes them.
