Damn, $200 sounds low, on the other hand 30% is a crazy share. I'm targeting 10-15% at most.

German here, 30% of income after taxes was the rule since a few decades, but in reality many people are closer to 50% now. How do you manage 15%?

EDIT: Oh, right, just saw the 8k income. That's C-Level money here.

I am C-level and also German.
