Should I include an interest rate?

Only if you want to. Interest is optional and defaults to zero. Any growth shown is a hypothetical estimate — real returns vary and are never guaranteed.

What is the difference between the two modes?

Enter a monthly contribution to estimate when you would reach the goal. Enter a target date to estimate the monthly contribution needed. Enter both to compare them.

What if I cannot contribute the amount it shows?

Then the target date, the target amount, or the contribution needs to move. The calculator is there to show you the trade-off, not to set a requirement.

Key ideas

Target amount: The total you're aiming to save for this specific goal.
Current savings: What you've already saved toward the goal today.
Monthly contribution: The amount you plan to add to the goal each month.
Why projections are estimates: Real returns vary and aren't guaranteed, so any interest-based figure here is hypothetical.
