Of all your income that comes in the house, how much of it goes to saving for you and your family?

Same here, but once we get taxes, everything will be paid off and we can start savings again!

We save about $600 a month. Between our two paychecks thats about 10%? I wish it could be more tho... paying off ALOT of billls.
