I disagree. People consider their net take home, not # of steps or if it’s higher than last and taxes for people at larger companies always estimate your tax and withhold that every week. Most people don’t even understand their taxes. When someone making 100k goes from 500 a chk withhold to 425, they just know their taxes went down
No, I always consider what I want to do a given evening or weekend.
I live below my means and need a large incentive to do something for someone else that I don’t necessarily want to do.
wrong. people make all kinds if decisions based on brackets.
several of my contacts were negotiated based on my expected tax brackets.
putting money into and withdrawing from IRAs is also.
