Best Answer

I make 100K per year, save 7% in my 401k (plus receive 4% match for a total of 11%) and save 2000/mo cash. I had been saving more in 401 and less in cash but flipped to build up more short term savings due to the fact that my company has been laying off lots of people in the last year. My wife and I make a combined total of 83K per year and end up saving $4000 per month. Of that, $3500 comes from savings from our salary and another $500 comes from interest we get on our savings.
