Quick tips
Aim for a 20%+ savings rate whenever you can. Even 10% is a solid start if you're just getting going.
Keep your debt-to-income ratio under 36%, and try to keep housing alone under 28% of your income.
Check the box next to any expense that's a debt payment (credit cards, loans, etc.) so your DTI calculates correctly.
20%

Once your budget has room to save, put that gap to work. Try the savings calculator to see how fast it can grow.

Savings rate is planned savings divided by income; debt-to-income is the expenses you mark as debt payments divided by income.
