2018 was the first full year for me where I tracked every expense I had, down to the single €.
So it was interesting to see the break down and I thought this would be also interesting for some others:
| Category | %(of total expenditure) | € |
|---|---|---|
| Rent | 26 | 6705 |
| Travel | 26 | 6588 |
| Food | 15 | 3821 |
| Fun | 13 | 3309 |
| Social | 8 | 2033 |
| Transport | 3 | 878 |
| Car | 2 | 696 |
| Clothing | <1 | 237 |
| Medical | <1 | 233 |
| Phone | <1 | 221 |
| Education | <1 | 100 |
| Others | <1 | 198 |
| Total | 25.019 |
For reference I am an Engineer based in western Germany.
I think this year I will be more careful on the travel side, but otherwise I am quite happy, being able to save more than 30% of my earnings :)
