I'm putting $100 ~ $150 (depends) in every month until I get out of university (1st year)..... So, hopefully by then I'll have a considerable amount of $$ as an emergency fund.

i am sure that you probably have more in the bank than I do.

I have a mortgage,and pay all my own bills,and have to work for ALL my own money.

its wiser to invest and get more returns on your money than keep it in the bank. I ahve about 300 in checking, and about 300 in savings. (used to have 1k, but just paid off my CC :eek:).

I put in $750 a month and try not to look at it. I obsess over my 401k though and watch it constantly.

I've got about $9500 in the bank, but $20,000 in student loans which I have to start paying at the end of the month. I could just as easily have $4500 in the bank and $15,000 in student loans. Or even $14,500 in the bank and $25,000 in student loans. Since everyone has varying amounts of loans, the amount that each has in the bank really cannot be compared.
