Financial Calculators can be a very useful tool in planning your future as well as determining short term gain.  Whether it be a credit card payoff, life insurance, comparing an ARM vs fixed rate mortgage, or evaluating whether or not your spouse should work, one that does their homework will be grateful in the end.

Some of the bigger financial obligations you will encounter (or have already encountered) are rent, car payment, mortgage, insurance (auto, house, health, etc.), weddings, vacations, and many other unexpected circumstances like appliance repair, family emergencies, etc.  If you take the time to plan and evaluate your current state, where you want to go, and what process will get you there, you will be thankful in the end.  You can never predict the unexpected, but know this, unexpected events are inevitable.  How will you be ready?
