Considerate CapitalPlan thoughtfully
Quiet tools · For agencies and nonprofits serving older adults

Give the people you serve something to use on your site, and a reason to come to you ready.

Social Security, Medicare, the Illinois Medicaid figures, the senior property tax exemptions, and the tax on benefits. No login, no email, and the source on every page, with the advice to talk with a professional at the end of each.

20 tools for agencies and nonprofits serving older adults. Each link opens a calculator in a small window on your site. Your visitor runs their own numbers, sees what the rules say, and reads the line every tool ends with: talk with a professional who knows your whole situation. On your site, that professional is you.

Put these on your site

Try one, the way your visitors would
The full page and sources

The link opens this window on your reader's screen, from our site. Nothing loads on your page but the link.

All 20 tools

Put the whole shelf on your site

One snippet, every tool above, each opening in a small window over your page. Copy it and paste it where your site takes HTML.

What it looks like on your page

Your reader stays on your site. Each link opens the calculator in a small window with its sources and one line saying who built it. No site around it, no pitch. Try one below.

Calculators from Considerate Capital. Educational estimates from the public rules, not advice; each opens in its own window with the sources and terms.

Prefer links to the full pages instead? Writers and nonprofits sometimes do. .

Email this to your web person

Paste it where your site takes HTML. In WordPress, that is a Custom HTML block. Nothing to install, and every link is tagged for your kind of firm.

All 20 tools are included. Change which ones

With every tool included, the shelf keeps itself current: a tool added for your kind of firm appears on its own. Untick any to pin the list to what you pasted.

Why firms put these on their sites

It ends with you
Every tool closes by telling the reader to talk with a professional who knows their whole situation. The reader is on your site, so the next step is your door.
Something to do, not just read
A visitor who runs their own numbers stays longer than one who reads, and the number they get is the question they bring to you. Every figure traces to a statute, regulation, or agency release, and when the law moves, it changes here.
In plain words
Every tool opens with a plain-English line on what it does and where it stops, so visitors use it without help and know its limits.

Built by Joshua Mangoubi, CFA, MBA. Joshua is a financial adviser who likes building things that help people think clearly about money. We hope these are useful to you and your clients. The tools are educational estimates from primary sources, not advice. Corrections are welcome through the contact page.
