I do when I have the money, and can resist the urge to get more camera gear!

Another old-fashioned saver checking in We save around 30% of our gross income to spend later.

Nobody saves these days, they just spend and borrow! Labour have set the example, and everyone has followed

I save as much as I can, which sometimes isn't very much.

I tend to save for a couple years or so, then blow most of it on a new car. Must stop doing that.
