re: How do you save your money?

Played on the website and certain things are not added to loan, etc... like a ring I bought I can't get it to add into any category, even after clicking on it and placing it in one before. Still shows up as random.

Mint takes some fine tuning and you have to keep up with categorizing purchases accurately. It's a useful tool if you are honest with it.

What do you do for a living?

Why are you asking me all these questions? Who in the frick are you, a-hole?
So, you see my dilemma? I was only trying to be nice and engage in friendly conversation, and she wants to be a bitch. Eh whatever.

Max out your 401K and spend the rest.

I don't have a 401K because I don't work at a place that has it...
But I do have a MMA and a Roth IRA. I will put my savings in the Roth IRA either in a single or multiple installments through the year until I hit the yearly max of $5500.

I put aside a generous 401k contribution.
Then, my employer deposits x amount into my checking account (which is a budgeted figure with a little wiggle), then if there is money left, it deposits up to a determined y amount into my savings, which is for emergencies/vacations.
If there is some money left, it gets deposited into my Vanguard investment account and automatically partitioned between a couple of funds by percentage.
(Current check is hourly so the potential of high variability is there, even if salary though the fundamental would be the same)

I get my paycheck in loose pennies and nickles.
Wrapping them is an act of love. We become one.

I save about $1200 a month but I don't have a 401k due to being an independent contractor (my wife does though and she has a badass pension). I stash around $350 a month into an emergency savings account, $150 into a 529 account for my daughter, and the rest goes into my Vanguard and Betterment accounts. I have been slacking as of late because I just bought an investment property and I've been spending some of my extra cash on finishing up the house.
