How much percentage of salary should be saved monthly?
Good day Everyone,
It is a rhetorical question, How much percentage of salary should be saved monthly? I know this has no correct answer but I'd like to know about people here when they were just starting out. THANKS :)

Percentage will depend on how much you make. Someone working minimum wage will have more problems saving a high percentage than someone making 6 figures (in theory). I buy what I need (basics, nothing fancy), pay my bills and save the rest. Reducing spending on eating out and buying a good car (nothing fancy) that is reliable and lasts helps a lot.
