44% of Net, but we fund our TSP account to the max, so that is included in Net.

We are 26% of gross/37% of net, and yes, the rule is applied to gross, not net.

45 but if you are making over a certain amount things like food, utilities etc... don't make that much sense. We followed the guidelines and for people over a certain amount the percentage doesn't matter. Meaning if I make 350k a year 50% of my income at 125k a year which is plently to live off of vs someone who makes 48k a year 24k is hard to live off of.

Is anyone sticking to that 20-25-30% guideline these days?
