I generally assume that 40% of my paycheck will go to taxes and savings. That’s not quite correct, but it’s a good first order of magnitude estimate.

and savings?

That includes anything that’s pre-paycheck, which would include 401k and HSA in my case, but would exclude post-tax savings (I was imprecise in my original comment).

Again, this is a rough rule that’ll typically be personally conservative, not a precise calculation.
