How much do you save of your salary or do you only save your bonus? Don't feel like I live that extravagantly and my analyst salary is fully drained every month.

I save half of my paycheck every month. I divide that into two: half of that goes to a high yield savings and the other half my regular savings

I would still save 10-15% in 401K and try to save at least $1000 a month in a HY savings

I spend ~3k per month and save the rest. Getting a good deal on rent is prob the biggest driver. Don't get suckered into those deals with 1 month free!

Oh yes I save 15% on 401K also

Yes I used to use GE Capital but they were just acquired by Goldman so I'm with Ally now

Wait wait. Assuming $85k base and 32% tax total, that leaves you with $4816 a month. 50% gone to savings, you guys live on $2416 a month? That's pretty damn impressive considering rent is like 75% of thar

*$2408

How can you assume $85k base? 😂😂😂 so random but no

Oh sorry sometimes I feel like everyone here is an IBD analyst haha. Your breakout makes much more sense on a high salary. How do you recommend the breakout for what I described?

Considering leaving to take a partner position at a small firm. Is it worth it? Would only be 2 partners with a staff of 10. Comp would be 250k on the low end and probably top out around 350k. Would take 3-4 years to get to this level of comp as would be buying 10% per year up to 40% of the firm. Am I stupid for not taking this? Currently manager making 125k. Comp first year as junior partner would be 120k with 10% ownership.

I am a registered sales assistant which means I have my series 7. I also have the 63 and my Life & Health license. I was a financial advisor but the role is commission only so I decided to take a role as an assistant for some time to learn etc. I really like my role, but I only make 32k a year and after taxes I only take home about 25k. I have a gut feeling that I’m not being paid market value but it’s tough to find comparable salaries. Do you think $15.38/hr is a fair wage in this case?

Which one to join GSK(X+3 bonus + 1 JB) as Data Engineer or Fujitsu consulting (x+3) fixed as System Architect??
