Re: How much do you save?
5 months in and we are just about nearly even with the move, setting up, and settling debts in the Uk costs..... For the first time this month we had a portion of the salary paid here and the rest into our Uk account, so fingers crossed we should be able to start saving soon!!!!

We save nothing, invest in various things like houses, stocks, motorbike etc, but stick money in a bank; nah!

Re: How much do you save?
My target is £12k by Xmas. Then minimum of £20k in 2012.
I'm sure many on here are on silly money still, but I like to set myself that target and hit it. Job done.
Take that money, buy a house in the UK, rent it out. Continue. Repeat.

Re: How much do you save?
you said you saved nothing as you invested all your spare cash in stocks etc but you put nothing in the bank.....which i interpreted to mean that you define saving as putting money in bank...and buying stocks as investing (and not saving)...
hence my comment about who mentioned banks. anyway..
