My intention would be to gradually increase. So in the past I was earning just slightly above the median, but gave 15%. In general I think it’s good to have an idea of what income you’re comfortable with, and then increase donations significantly as you pass that point. But I set the bar really high here just because I’m aware that my perception of what is enough might change in different life-stages.
To be honest I think my model is super crude and probably not ideal, I would really like to see other models like this!

Thanks for answering, makes sense.
@Philip Popien took the “Progressive Pledge”, whereby he gradually increases his pledged percentage upon any salary increase.
