2027 inflation-adjusted amounts?

[Peter Gulia]

Now that inflation measures through August are released [https://www.bls.gov/news.release/cpi.nr0.htm], is anyone up to calculate an estimate of likely 2027 inflation-adjusted amounts for retirement plans?

Milliman typically provides updated projections monthly, generally around mid-month. The most recent on their website currently is based on July data; I would expect the estimates based on August data will appear in the next few days.

Peter - 

the values for CPI-U are found here.

someone on benefits link probably has my old spreadsheet and can plug the values. Being retired, I only use the 2nd table (CPI-W) to see what my soc sec should be next year. I only peek in here once and awhile.

 

God bless, all!
