I usually buy in for 25 big bets for whatever limit I am playing. So...

10/20 - 500
15/30 - 750
20/40 - 1000
30/60 - 1500

And I reload if I get to low enough that I can't play a hand to the river with capped betting every round.

It is generally regarded that you should have about 100 times the big bet in order to comfortable play a game and overcome the up and down swings. So at 10/20 you'd want about 2,000, at 15/30 3,000, and so on. While you don't need to have it all on the table all at once, it might be a good idea to have it handy.
