My case
For monetary allowance, I give abt 800pm to my parents. (abt 12% of pay)
Along with food, hp bills, misc expenditure, comes up to about 1200 - 1400 (~18%) a month.
Hoping to do more, but I do have my own considerations, as everyone else does...
house
car
kids
utilities
insurances
food / grocery
an occasional indulgence or 2
