[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I haven't done the math lately, especially since my husband changed jobs this past summer and I don't see the statements as frequently. We shoot for 15% of take home on a monthly basis. We make $135Kish combined (give or take -I'm PT and hourly, so my salary isn't set). We had been utilizing Roths for the past few years as our biggest savings vehicle and were maxing those, plus some money in a couple other places/investment vehicles. His last company didn't offer retirement plan benefits, but paid our health care premium in full - it was a trade off. Anyway, he now has a plan at work (I think it is Roth 401K?) and we are maxing that per paycheck. I still have my Roth and a small Simple IRA through my employer. I don't even count matches because they aren't guaranteed per year. They are just icing when they happen. Oh, and whatever interest/gains we realize from rollover accounts from past employers. We have to have a meeting with our FA soon - I'll have the more specific numbers by then ;)[/quote]
