At this point I want to figure out a way to work 6 months out of the year at 75$ an hour or so. Then max out my 401k and take 6 months off( see my other thread , I'd do this in a cheaper country)
My theory is I'd end up paying very little taxes compared to working myself mad trying to hit 200k a year.
- granshaw 5y agoAim higher. With the market as it is now you can make 110+ per hour as a subcontractor, doing work not much different than a regular employee. Can make much more if you can find your own clients. You can even try to set non “fulltime” hours eg 20-30hrs/week but not all clients will go for that. Also file your taxes as an s-Corp and start a solo 401k. You can contribute much more than a regular salaried employee could
- auspex 5y agoI see the biggest problem here is that when you leave you’re gone for six months. When you come back it’ll take you a month to ramp back up.
- 41209 5y agoI'd be fairly flexible here. It doesn't need to be a full 6 months every single year , some years might be a bit longer , etc.
