Take your monthly income and multiply by 300. That's how much you need to invest to replace your monthly income. Take your monthly income and multiply by 0.2. That's the minimum amount you should be investing each month. Finally, take your monthly income and multiply by 0.6. That's how much you should have in your emergency fund and not on the market. Finally, take your monthly income and multiply by 0.5. That's the maximum amount you should be spending on necessities such as rent, food, and transportation.
