What are your percentages for things like.
Food
Rent
Mortgage
Petrol/Diesel
Remaining
etc
I'm interested to see what the averages turn out to be. Apologies if this has been done before, i've missed it. Just point me in the right direction if that is the case.
Also interesting would be what are your intended percentages for savings etc.
