How much do you save?
 

There are always loads of posts regarding if a package works or not, and surprisingly different views. As they say revenue is fantasy bottom line is reality, it doesn't matter what you earn it's what you save.

So, how much, on average, do you try and save each month?

I'll vote when some others have for anonymity.

No poll....

Give me an anonymous poll and i'll let you know!

Re: How much do you save?
 

Poll would be more interesting in AED / $ / £ - rather than % which in my opinion doesn't give any insight.

I didn't realize there was such demand!

Anyway, it's not easy to figure out the boxes as packages and savings vary so much!

I know people saving over 150k AED / month if you include the bonuses.

seriously? what do they do for a living? and where do I need to hang out to meet these people? lol

That is quite an obscene ammount of money!

yeh, it's shocking really. These days are reducing now though but 80-120k monthly packages with 100-150% bonuses were not uncommon for senior management at one point.

There will always be people who earn more/ save more. They have better jobs!

Even for a similar salary, if you're half of a working couple, it's a very different story to if you're single or if your other half is a househusband/housewife.

Do you think we should do a poll on what we spend a month. (Anonymous except for the lowest being Lionheart natch)

I'm horrified by our outgoings here and i still shop at M&S for undies, gym gear and the odd frock and not Harvey Nicks. (though i have a few pairs of spenny shoes).

Ah, but you get all those benefits. Add them all up. This is exactly why the poll is an absolute amount saved rather than % (as no-one can agree on what is salary and what isn't).
