I didn't mean that comment as a complain so push back a lot :) The thing I wanted to mention, is I'm actually doing well for myself (well, somewhat) but if you are earning 20k EUR a year, after taxes, you don't have that much to save after everything is payed. But since you mentioned the 32k, care to share how much you would take home a month after taxes? Just curious... (and yes, I have a wife and a kid, and I am atm the only provider)

Hehe, sorry, I always get into a fit when these threads pop up. :) Totally understand your point about needing a certain minimum threshold to start saving. If you are living paycheck to paycheck, you don't really stand a chance. I just looked up my paystubs and it appears my monthly take home was just about $2000, after taxes. Perk of being poor in Massachusetts is that I was in the lowest tax bracket at least :)

  No problem :) Just to compare, 33k EUR gives about shy of 1500 EUR a month after taxes.
