10% of my check in Staples Inc stock.
I also have options at $20 per share too. This is a pretty good investment for me. I can't say anything bad because this company's value keeps increasing as they expand overseas and in the midwest.
25% in my 401K.
booooring ... but I need it.

I put 10% of my gross income into the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's (newspaper company) for the first 7 years that I worked there. It did really well. I cashed in and put down a majority down payment on my escalade. A lot of people said it was stupid of me to do that, but 2 months later, the company got a huge class action lawsuit. I knew it was coming.

snitches get stitches
Being in college (and not having a job during the school year), I save what I can. It's hard so I don't set percentages. If I have free cash that I can't justify spending, it goes to saving. As of right now I have ~6k that is building 3.4% interest in an ING savings account.

I save up for those as needed. Right now they are not needed. House I already have.
