Poll: How much money do you have in savings?

[Gunslinger08]

Savings only.

 

[KLin]

Not enough.

 

[jpeyton]

$0-$10,000?

It's nice to know that those with $10k will be lumped together with someone who searched their couch cushions today.

 

[potato28]

About three fitty.

 

[meltdown75]

Eight dollars. Canadian.

A 20 year old male will have less saved than a 40 year old male of the same caliber... Maybe you should add a pole for age or something...

~4K...would be about double, but I bought a new bike

 

[newb111]

A better poll would be money to age ratio. Savings/age for me would be 2273 (50,000 / 22)
It is a better indicator of relative savings imo

 

[FoBoT]

$42

 

[nageov3t]

a little under 10K

[laurenlex]

Knocking two zeros off the end of each number would make the poll better.

 

[imported_cheapdude]

I don't have much in saving, just a few thousand in and out to cover cash expenses. Most are invested and some CD.

 

[PrinceofWands]

Couple grand in my safe and other secure locations.

 

[MustISO]

A lot.

 

[IronWing]

I had a bunch more before buying the new truck.

You might want to rethink that safe. I have a friend who thought his money was good in a safe, but it turns out the safe was stolen and his money and belongings are gone.

 

[monk3y]

16K but I'm going to be buying a house soon...

It's not all there...I have a couple locations. Also the safe is pretty highly rated and secured through the floor to some rods in the foundation. Not saying it couldn't be stolen, but they'd have to REALLY want it. Add to that the other security measures on the house, and the good neighborhood, and the fact that most everyone I know that's ever at the house is armed 24/7 (myself included) and you've got a pretty low threat level.

$20,000-$30,000, however I owe about just as much in loans. And no its not feasible to pay them off.
