$540/40hrs = $13.5/hr. Any number of jobs pay this little.
- protonbob 4y agoThat's take home pay. With taxes it's much higher.
- texaslonghorn5 4y agoso based on empirical observations I am sure there are a number of people who are making barely enough to support the child care cost quoted in the post I quoted. maybe I misinterpreted the post I responded to
- evan_ 4y agothen you also need to factor in tax rebates for childcare, which won't cover 100% but it will lessen the impact
- kube-system 4y agoLOL. I meant that rhetorically, not literally. I am suggesting that it is a bad life choice to work a job and then spend every penny paying someone else to take care of your kids for you.
