An interactive method and system determining the results of life style choices over time. The user inputs one or more lifetime goals. In response, the system provides the user with one or more input selections based on the user's goals. The users' selections are classified as an Income or an Expense. The classified Income and Expense selections are further classified as analytic or probabilistic. The one or more analytic selections have a known or calculable quantity. The probabilistic selections have an unknown quantity that can be calculated over time by applying a distribution curve based on real world data. The probabilistic calculations includes one or more iterations such that a value can determined for each Income or Expense and wherein the Income and Expense values are summarized over the appropriate number of iterations such that a cash-flow result is calculated. The cash-flow results that fall within the distribution curve are counted such that the probability of the user reaching their goals based on their lifestyle choices can be determined and displayed graphically via the user interface.
