1a. Who can use InvestEd

2. What InvestEd is (and isn't)
What InvestEd is: An educational planning tool that:
- Simulates financial scenarios month-by-month
- Shows feasibility, timelines, and failure points
- Explains results in plain language (via optional AI)
What InvestEd is not:
- Not financial advice.We don't recommend securities, financial products, tax positions, or legal structures, and we don't tell you what to do with your money. When you compare approaches, InvestEd may rank or highlight them by a metric you pick, such as net worth at the end of your plan, using only the figures you enter, and shows what each one costs. A ranking or a highlight is not a recommendation. Acting on any of it is your decision. We only change a plan when you tell us to.
- Not a prediction.We don't forecast markets, rates, or economic conditions.
- Not a guarantee.Your real-world results may differ based on factors we can't simulate.
- Not a substitute for professionals. If you need advice, hire a licensed advisor and/or seek professional tax guidance.
