My income varies quite a bit month to month. Next month I will make almost 3x what I make this month.
But I will average it out over a year.
As percentage of gross
11% - Mortgage
1% - Utilities
5% - Food / eating out
3% - Entertainment
1% - Various Sundries
5% - travel
13% - 401k for both the wife and I
After the taxman takes his cut, the rest goes into general savings. We are saving about 35% of our income right now, which is really cool but also sometimes I think short sighted.
