What does the Time Wealth Calculator measure?

It estimates the time your work, commute and any additional work-related hours will occupy between your current age and the age you choose to stop full-time work. It also shows that time as a share of your waking hours over the same period.

What does “years” mean in my result?

A year in the headline result means 365.25 continuous, 24-hour days. It is a way to understand the total hours, not the number of calendar years you will be employed. The waking-time percentage excludes the sleep hours you enter.

Can I include remote work, irregular hours or more than one job?

Yes. Enter your typical total weekly paid hours across jobs. For travel, use the number of days you actually commute and a typical one-way journey. Use an average week if your schedule varies. Open “Refine your calculation” to change working weeks, sleep and additional work-related hours.

Does this mean I should work less or retire earlier?

No. Meaningful work, income and responsibilities matter. The comparisons show time differences, not financial or employment advice. Use them to explore what might be possible, then consider the consequences and any agreement you would need.

What will I receive by email?

Your personal PDF report brings your work footprint, assumptions and useful comparisons together. The 13-page Take Your Life Back guide helps you map your real week, discuss one change, protect time for something that matters and review a seven-day trial.

What happens to my information?

The calculation runs in your browser. If you request your report, your email and report inputs are sent to provide it, with the consent shown beside the form. Kajabi stores your email and request. Your optional “make room for” choice stays in your browser. Private report links last seven days. You can unsubscribe from Atlas emails at any time; requesting these resources does not subscribe you to Substack.

The calculation, step by step

Annual work-related hours = (weekly paid work + extra work-related hours + twice your one-way commute in hours × commute days per week) × working weeks per year.

Total hours = annual work-related hours × (your chosen stop age − your current age). Continuous years = total hours ÷ 8,766. Waking-time share = total hours ÷ [(stop age − current age) × 365.25 × (24 − sleep hours)] × 100.

Comparisons change one assumption at a time and keep the others fixed. They are not added together. Emotional spillover is not included in the hours. Changes to income, employment, health or caring needs are not modelled.
