2) 100 minus age rule
The rule is designed to help you determine the asset allocation between equity and debt. You need to subtract your age from the number 100 to get the equity allocation%
If your age is 30, equity allocation should be 70% (100-30)
3) 50/30/20 Rule
This basic rule of thumb is to divide your monthly after-tax income into three spending categories:
50% for needs,
30% for wants
20% for savings or paying off debt
4) The 35 percent rule
The whole idea behind the 35% rule is that , EMI as a percentage of your income should not exceed 35-40%
Anything above that might put a strain on your finances. In case your EMI is more than that, you should avoid taking any more loans.
