Standard of Living Index
What items in the reports are affected if I change the values in the "Economic Assumptions/Standard of living index table"?
Thanks

Pretty much everything since everything in ESPlanner is related (more or less directly). The place you'll probably spot it most quickly is in the savings (or withdrawals) of regular assets. Essentially you're lowering your standard of living (assuming that you're lowering the standard of living index) so you're not spending as much year to year as ESPlanner thinks you should.
