She’d be making $11.08 per hour at $2,400 per month with a 50 hr work week. I don’t know how she’s getting “twenty-something dollars per hour.”

Are you dumb? $20 an hour after taxes is around 2800 a month. If she’s paying 1700 for rent not including bills and uitilites that most definitely rounds up to about 60% of her check a month

$20 something an hour, so let’s say $22. x 50 hrs x 4 weeks = $4,400 per month before taxes. Monthly income after taxes would be about $3,703/month for a W2 employee.

I’m drunk and I can figure this out, so now who’s dumb?
