A common rule of thumb is to spend up to 30% of your gross income on house rent. This means if you make $100 an hour, you’re spending $30 on house rent.

Of the remaining $70, you can spend 50% on groceries, transportation, health, loans and many other expenses and 20% on your savings. This is considered a standard rule for your earnings (50/30/20).
