One-time 100k withdrawal from non-registered — net worth drop doesn't reflect full amount
setup:
- 30-year retirement projection
- Net worth displayed in today's dollars
What I did:
- Added a one-time $100k expense (car replacement) in 2027
- Added a -$100k withdrawal override on my Non-Registered Savings account in 2027 to force funding from non-registered (rather than letting Adviice default to TFSA or RRSP)
Result: Net worth dropped by only ~$55k, not the expected $100k.
What I tested for comparison:
- Removing the non-reg override (letting Adviice auto-select the source): net worth dropped by ~$173k — a much larger impact.
- My questions:
- Why does a $100k withdrawal only reduce today's-dollar net worth by ~$55k ?
- Is combining the expense entry + non-reg withdrawal override the correct way to force funding from a specific account for a one-time spend?
Thanks in advance!
