Actually right now if I invest I will probably get some of these 2.0 coins. Risky, of course but also potential for big rewards/ It will also allow me to hedge my bets in case one of them goes big and challenges Bitcoin.

I don't know... What are the benefits of these new "2.0" coins?

My conversion is roughly around 5% of what I make. Even though bitcoin has shown tremendous growth potential, especially these last few months, I'm still fairly cautious on going overboard with bitcoin.
[Just for perspective, I put around 30% of my income into various investment vehicles.]
30% of your income to investments is actually quite impressive. Having only 5% in Bitcoin seems low, especialy with the past growth rate and probable likely growth rate of bitcoin price being far greater than anything traditional investment. If I were you I'd bump up Bitcoin to being 33% of your investment portfolio, but then again I'm a long bull Admittedly, it varies on a quarterly basis, but with the activity within the last two quarters, I've adjusted it to a lower number. Naturally though, if I start seeing different numbers and trends, this will definitely change.

About 20% until I reach my savings goal, then I'll switch to stacking PMs. It's probably wiser to invest in the safe asset first, but I don't want to miss the train.

75% in normal months. The other 25% is living expenses. I only started buying this year so I am catching up to the guys who bought in 2013; bad timing costs a lot of money.
I own my own business and, unfortunately, business has sucked the last 2 months so I haven't been able to buy much at these cheaper prices.
Yes, I am still in the black, even while buying this year.

Everything I can spare I put in Bitcoin. I know, it's a gamble, but I'm willing to take it. You know, all those rich people didn't become rich by just playing it safe and never taking a risk. If Bitcoin goes indeed to the moon and I miss the rocket, I'd be biting my own ass for all time.

I don't know... What are the benefits of these new "2.0" coins? NXT and Bitshares look very promising. Then there is this Ether business. I do not know if they will be any good, but if one of them get real big I would not like to be kicking myself. If they instead fail and Bitcoin goes strong then I look at my investment in them as an insurance fee.

Most people are not able to save more then 10-15% of their income and if they do they are living a lower standard of living then what their income would suggest.

Starting to consider of inveting some fiat in bitcoin, but have not done this, unless buying mining equipment counts.

I'm not actually putting any new money in. Maybe if price is still this low (or lower) around year-end bonus time, I will put in a couple thousand more. For now, just keeping most in cold storage and trading with 10-20%.

About 30%, the rest are for expenses and about 10% saving in fiat...

Let X my earnings. Let Y be things that will make me homeless or be in jail or dead if I don't pay for them.
What I put in bitcoins is X-Y, no exception

30%, but for no well thought out reason. It's just that about 30% of my income is in bitcoin and I don't spend most of it.

I'm more of the 80s guy and so I try to keep things safe... I like BTC though, so I invest 1% of my monthly earnings in BTC. I often have to keep myself from day-trading, or rather day-wasting, those BTC afterwards... Sad times...
