Field notes
The page says calculations happen in the user's browser and that entered figures are not uploaded. Location comparisons use local residents' consumer baskets, which the site warns may understate costs for people living abroad; visa, health-insurance, and return-flight expenses are excluded. The page also identifies child expenses as lasting until age 22 and says more detailed family and part-time-income arrangements are planned for a later version.
