one financial blog mentioned the excel spreadsheets at analyzenow.com

the third(3) link is for an excel file for ..How Saving Income Now Can
Add Income in Retirement.

I saved the link and ran the excel spreadsheet but did not fully
understand the highlighted values (pink vs. white cells) at bottom of
the spreadsheet

can someone explain a little of what the values at bottom mean? I used
his default values but entered age as 50 (his default 40) and savings
500,000 (his default 100,000)

on the bottom it shows 50% and 80% success rates and some values are
negative
