Yeah, some of the net values seem high. To be honest, I don't really know off hand what I "net". I know what I take home, but that's after 401k, health/life insurance, ESPP, and other things that are actually personal expenses and savings. So technically it's money that should go into the "net" column and then be listed as an expense. I do know that I get less than half of what is listed on the top of my paycheck deposited into our checking account. It's depressing

I don't spend shite on clothes, hardly use my ccs, have a low car payment etc etc and still feel like I don't have enough free flowing cash to be comfortable.

Whenever people ask me what I miss most about being young?

"not paying for shite"

For those that are in the 28-35 range and have gotten a few of those "raises", do things get more comfortable? I feel like I'm busting my arse in what I thought was a damn good job, living in a super low cost city and still feel like im treading water sometimes.

I know the feel

My take home is over half but not as much as I'd like


I guess I could always put less in my 401k to change that if I wanted to
