You sound like a spoiled little brat who didn’t get his oompa loompa right now!

If you are losing out on the A-plan bump, you had several past negotiations in which to fight for IRS limits.

If you need the retro pay, cut back on spending

if you need the less-than-industry-standard hourly pay increase, sell the house and downgrade.

Sorry we drug you into a fight, but for the majority on property it is clearly worth it. You don’t have to roll up your sleeves and duke it out with us, but at least stop cheering for the other side.
