My wife and I have held various run-of-the-mill salaried jobs. Nevertheless, things change and then they change again, as life unfolds, and both income and spending end up being very volatile. We spend what makes sense and save the rest. The result is that our savings rate has varied between 7% of gross income and 54% of gross income in the past few years. Over the course of our careers (now late 30s), it has averaged about 40% of gross.
