FAQ: Why Did My Success Rate Go Down When I Increased Salary?

If you updated your Discovery Income and noticed a decrease in projection success, this is likely being generated because there are now 'Missing Expenses' in your Cash Flow Diagram.

If you don't tell the platform where that extra net income is going, it assumes its being spent. This extra spending is carried forward into retirement, which may cause a drop in Estate Value and Success Rate.

Take a look at the Cash Flow diagram and increase your Savings in Discovery > Expenses to match the net income increase. That should solve the issue.
