Put your own numbers in. See your own gap.

Everything up to now has been someone else's numbers. These are yours — today's take-home pay, calculated properly, side by side.

Today's numbers — where you both actually stand.

This is what you already have access to, together, right now. ForBothOfUs changes nothing about this — it stays completely dormant while you're together.

Now, let's look at what might happen.

Two decisions, made once, before anything's happened.

10 years Most couples choose 5–15 years
Her 50% / His 50% Most couples choose 50/50

Today's dollars, adjusted for inflation. Pre-tax income first, then what that actually becomes after tax — the maths, not just the ending point.

Total protection value over 10 years, with ForBothOfUs:

  • Years 1–5: the average career interruption after having children — her income is modelled at $0 during this period
  • Year 5 (re-entry): 57% of what a continuously-employed peer would be earning by then
  • Years 5–10: partial catch-up to 63% of peer income — the documented 10-year earnings differential — still growing, from a much smaller base
  • His figure: continuous ~4.5% real growth for the entire period — no interruption, no catch-up needed, the same peer rate hers is measured against
