One of the most common questions people ask me is:
“How much saving is enough?”

It sounds so simple — but behind it is the secret that separates those who struggle with money from those who master it.

Why the Right Number Matters

Let’s get real.
You work hard. You build your business, chase promotions, expand your skills. But here’s the harsh truth: Earning well doesn’t guarantee wealth.

Too often, I meet smart, successful people who think they’re doing “okay” because they’re saving something. But “something” is not a plan — and vague saving is why many high earners end up feeling financially insecure, despite their big paycheques.

A Simple Story — A Big Lesson

Take Raj (name changed).
Raj is a young entrepreneur with a growing business. He was saving about 10% of his income and felt pretty proud of it — until we did a quick check:

• No emergency fund.

• Money lying idle in a savings account.

• No plan for big goals — or retirement.

Was he earning well? Absolutely.
Was he financially secure? Not really.

We made a few tweaks:
✔️ Bumped his savings rate to 35% of income.
✔️ Built an emergency fund covering 8 months of expenses.
✔️ Moved idle money into smart investments that outpace inflation.

The result? Raj sleeps better. He makes braver business decisions. He’s on track to buy time freedom for himself — not just profits for his business.

How Much Should You Save?

Everyone’s number is different — but here are a few thumb rules:

✅ Emergency Fund: 6–12 months of expenses — life happens. Be ready.
✅ Savings Rate: In your 30s–40s? Aim for 30–40% of income if you want to buy freedom earlier than 60.
✅ Retirement Corpus: Target 25–30 times your annual expenses by retirement.
✅ Big Goals: Home, kids’ education, sabbatical — plan for them early, don’t wing it.

What Happens If You Ignore It?

Most people only realise they haven’t saved enough when it’s too late to catch up.
And the sad part?
They didn’t need more income — they needed more clarity.

The Bottom Line

Money isn’t just for spending or hoarding — it’s your tool to buy freedom, choices, and peace of mind.
Knowing your number means you know exactly how much is enough — not just for today, but for tomorrow too.
