The New Math
Remember the contract position I mentioned below? The one that pays barely less than what I currently make?The recruiter gave me the hourly wage - say, $50. I took 50 and multiplied it by 40 = 2000. Right? Right.
So that's $2000 per week. My current company pays us twice a month; so, 2000 times 2 = 4000.
$4000 a month. Minus a third for taxes, and you get approximately $2600 a month take-home.
Not worth it. Right? Right.
Now, if I had taken into consideration that there are FOUR weeks in a month...then that's 2000 times 4, for $8000 month. Subtract taxes and you're taking home almost double what I currently make.
THAT...that, might be worth pursuing.
