Nice, here is another more detailed version I made a few years back off the back of a rather excellent wait but why article :) https://labs.coruscantconsulting.co.uk/life/weeks/

What I find funny on that chart is that retirement is default at 62. I don't think that will be the average when I want to retire in 30 years.
Found this chrome extension which puts this calendar in your new tab

Awesome! One request: can you give the option to toggle the life phases on the left? I.e. not everybody goes to uni. In Australia we also go straight from high-school to uni rather than college but there is no option to remove college. Great little visualiser though!
You can set college to zero years, and it’ll skip that phase.
I did exactly this and then realized I couldn't see the difference in colour between high school and university.
This one was great. Seeing what this looks like for me and where I'm at actually brought me a sense of peace and joy. I like how I'm a fair bit into my career but still have so much of it left.
