            Precious little, that's for sure.

            10% of gross income into a retirement fund (matched by 5% from my employer)

            About $1500/month goes from an inveestment that's paying off into an education fund (daughter goes to college in fall 2008)

            Other than that, it's all about managing the lucking debt.

                  maybe i'll go to college really close to home so i can just live there[at home].
                  i was thinking about college today, cuz i was at a local college for a math competition. winner get's $3000 off a year. i prolly wont win cuz everyone there was older than me, but i think i did well.
                  it was the one my parents went to, so i could get money off the alumni thingy, and it's not a bad college. and the grocery store i work at over the summer gives 2500 to whatever college. and my dad said he'd give me his car, which is a 300C.
                  so all the money i save, i can spend on frivolous things!

                  but i don't know if i want to live at home =\

                    thing is you never know when you are going to die. You need money to retire on. Social security will be broke by the time I reach retirement age.

                    Unless you plan on killing yourself at a specified age, better save some money for retirement.

                    Though I thought about killing myself when I reacheed 50. But then I found myself pushing the date, further and further back. I doubt I would go through with it.

                      Might have been easier if you had a shedload of debts?

                          Next year I'll aim to save £500 a month, but I can't quite see that happening. Especially considering after tax/NI/student loan I only get about £1650 a month. Will probably end up saving nearer £200 a month or so.

                            45€ a month. I intend to save more once I:
                            1. have a job
                            2. buy back three years worth of retirement rights (those go more expensive when you get old)
