And subtracting taxes to determine the net benefit really does nothing to my final decision because I'll have to pay taxes one way or another...if I make less, then that's still less net income. In any case, an extra $30/hour will help recover from year one. That's QOL to me.
I have no doubt ANYTHING anyone says will change YOUR mind, but others should understand it's NOT a "grand a month". That's what a salesman tries to convince a housewife buying an overpriced car does.....ignore the real numbers. You DON'T keep taxes, man and spinning it or glossing over that won't change that.
Others getting.......strike that.........THINK they are getting $60,000 that is really $150/week should also know what the fine print says and that indicates a staggering back-end cost for the $150/week up-front.
Caveat Emptor.
