I'm right at the cusp of Roth IRA contributions being taken away. If I were angling for a raise, I would make sure I made just under the limit for this year (old salary and new salary combined in proportion to time worked under each) and try to negotiate for more time off. That's about the only time I would forgot a wage raise and it would probably only be worth it for a band of 3000 around that limit.
