Of post-tax, post 401K earnings
12% on fun
4% on food
40% on savings/investments
26% on rent/mortgage
18% on loans (car and student - 2 years left to pay out both) after that it’ll likely be split between travel and savings
As income that gets larger budget for food, rent/mortgage should stay fixed. Also don’t intend on having a big lifestyle creep, so savings and travel budget will likely increase. Target is savings at 50% not incl. bonus
Spend as much as I can then save the rest. Luckily I mostly play video games :)
A couple years ago when I first started I very specifically remember the “fun budget” being $150 per weekend. That was equal to like dinner on Friday and a night out on Saturday. This was in a high to medium course of living city at a starting salary of 75k. Also had no student loans so that goal was so I could save up.
