For example:

you take 6 years and 200 Euro per month with 2.9% inflation
to get value for the 200 euro of ‘today’ , you actually need 237.42 Euro
During the 6 years about 2700 Euro of value will evaporate.

invest & check the return

Of course you hope that the return is higher than the inflation...

Back ground info

When you take about 5% as a long term average, you are on the safe side, higher is nice but not realistic, lower like 4% is maybe a bit pessimistic.
