[QUOTE="chadh2o, post: 2993827, member: 40131"] How bout some maff Salaried working stiff 365 days, 52 weeks, 2 weekend days, 7 national holidays, 2 weeks vacation (10 working days) 365-104 (52×2)=261 261-7=254 254-10= 244 days worked for 95% of salaried people School Teacher Contract is 180 days, +5 prior to school year beginning, +3 after school year, +3 extra 180+5+3+3=191 days worked Difference is 53 working days (not calender days)/5 working days per week is 10.7 weeks difference. My wife's public elementary school teaching salary including benefits (health insurance, pension, ect) was $46,233 in 2016 (17 years, masters degree). 46,233/191= $242.0575 per day (242.06) 242.06/8 hours (8-4)=$30.25 per hour Now let's add the 53 day difference. 242.06 x 53= $12,829.18 + 46,233= $59,062 salaried worker equivalent I asked my wife if she would rather have her time off or the extra 12g's. What do you think she said? What's interesting, after doing this little ditty, my income is in the park. Now if you think a salaried worker only works 8 hours a day, no weekends/holidays, and cannot be fired because?, you need to try it. Nearly all of my wife's teacher friends love what they do AND like their time off. My wife wants NO part of what I do for any amount. We each have our niche, so enjoy what you do. As far as time spent working on a daily basis, start your own business, become your own boss. There is a reason 90% of small businesses fail in the first 3 years. Most don't realize the time and sacrifice it takes to make it go, and then still fail. (Boy oh boy, my neighbors yard sure is greener than mine) Flame away, I put on the asbestos, so gtg.
