Default Re: How much money have you saved a month since coming to saving advice?

I don't know if the site is totally responsible, because alsomy blog also really motivates me, but I'm saving about $850 per month. Yahoo!

$600 to workplace retirement accounts (my spouse's and mine)

$75/month to college accounts for my almost-3-year-old

$150/month to ING for irregular bills. (I expect to spend all this money each year)

plus the occasional small deposit in the ING account to boost my E fund savings.

Still want to start saving monthly into special accounts for gifts (xmas, bday, etc), charitable donations, travel, and a car fund. I also want to start contributing to my Roth regularly. Right now I just put the occasional windfall in there.
