    3,800 per month mortgage
    Bills I have no idea, they get paid
    Food practically zero as I eat out every meal

    You first OP

    Costs €970 pm to run my house. A little more during cold weather.

    I save just under 20% of my income, in reality I could probably stretch to 30% but life's for living and all that.

    Sounds like a college project. Please don't run a separate thread on car costs etc.

    For what it's worth...

    Rent/Mortgage. 0

    Food(not including eating out) 250

    Health Insurance. 250

    Fuel (Heating) 60

    Bins. 5

    TV. 0

    Internet 25

    House Insurance 40


    I can save 70% of my income if I wished.

    Savings (including shares) and pension contributions, take up around 45-50% of my income. Rent is roughly 20%.

    Looking forward to subbing out that rent for a mortgage in the next year.
