I currently save about half my regular income and spend the other half, mostly on day to day living costs. I don't spend much on going out, clothes, holidays etc. That's how I have a 50% savings rate TBH.

I do receive occasional additional income. Last year I put that towards mortgage overpayment. This year I put it in my ISA. Some years if business is not great I don't get any additional.

Are you single or have you a family to support?
That's a really good savings rate!
