Default Re: What % of your Income do you save?

Ok, I think I've got some trickiness out of the way. I'm not doing a percentage, too much work.
I save $4000 after tax in my Roth.
Come July 1st (tomorrow) I will be saving 4% in my 401k pre-tax.
Otherwise, I say about $300 a month into savings.

I need to save more though. I could save about $170 more a month, but then I wouldn't be paying down my student loans or house as fast.
