233K

5600 every two weeks

PS I say approximately because I can and do earn more but that is the base amount

Single, no kids
HHI $116k
Monthly take home $4500 approx
I max out 401k
Contribute $1200 to IRA
Save $1400/mth
15 yr mtg at $1700/mth
$325/mth car payment
No school loans or other debts

In the new year going to max out IRA.

HHI: $290K
Take home: $12,500/month

We both just got raises, so need to rejigger how much we contribute to TSP, etc.

OP, you know there's a great search function here on DCUM, don't you? This question gets asked weekly.

HHI is 280k. Take home is 156k after contributing to 36k to 401k and small contribution to pension fund, 5k dependent care fund, and 2500 flexible spending account.

I take home approximately 50% of my gross.

I make a about $109k, which should be about $9k per month. I bring home about $4,300 per month. I max retirement ($18k + $5000 in Roth), pay the medical insurance for the family and pay the majority of the taxes. It still seems like I should be bringing home more but who knows...

After maintaining 3 households- trophy wife, ex wife and mistress bang bang, how much coke money do you have left?

Hhi 1.6m. Take home alittle over $70k per month. Hopefully with the new president we will be able to keep more of our income.

Poor people numbers
I'm single and make 100k

500 a month to emergency savings
Monthly take home 4400 - school loan (540), monthly parking (220), rent (1500), utilities ( gas, electricity,cell phone ( approx $200 )), what ever is left some goes to a 2nd saving account ($1000 a month if no sporadic expense) the remaining is for entertainment, grocery and any miscellaneous expenses.

HHI 300K
Take home - 12 k a month. Rest everything is invested after taxes and such. 12 k covers everything from mortgage, cars, food, vacations, travel, house remodeling, tutors, hobbies, eating out, maid etc. Very low mortgage, no student debt, no private schools.

For us:
155k HHI

Take home:
5k every month

We have a 457 that we contribute double the 401k amount (ie 36k per year instead of 18).

I used to think that 155k would leave me swimming in money like Scrooge McDuck- alas, that is not the case!

Wow 3000 a month in your 457? That's why you are not swimming in cash. Not saying your are not doing the right thing on the contrary, I am completely lost on the retirement front...

For us 180kHHI, take home 10k (but then 1000k less a month for student loans and CC debts) so 9k
