How much do you save per paycheck? What is the average?

150,000 in 1997 is about $230,000 in 2017 dollars based on an average inflation calendar.
Which would you rather have had to save with?
Saving as much of salary as possible is rarely a bad thing.
With salaries this high - it could be between 40-70% depending on where you live (maybe even more) and if you co-habitate with someone.
Sharing on average dollars of income available to save after taxes per year would be interesting. At the end of the day it's not just what you make, but what you are in a position to save.
