Sadly, in the Bay Area $4166 is almost exactly what an exempt employee making $100K actually takes home every month.

- superchink 13y agoYes, but if they are collecting $100k to fund their work on this project over the next year, they will still be paying taxes ON TOP of that.
- rdouble 13y agoYa, just had a flashback to a former paycheck...
- binarycrusader 13y agoNo, if they were making $100K, then taxes and witholding, etc. will leave them with roughly 65% of their gross. So they'd actually be taking home closer to $5416 per month. Still "sad" (given that average rental rate on a two-bedroom apartments is $2K+ per month in the general bay area), but not quite as much.
- HerraBRE 13y agoWe will be doing this legally, which means paying ourselves salaries and paying taxes etc. etc.
- binarycrusader 13y agoI wasn't implying otherwise; and the figure I provided is what a typical employee should see in the San Francisco Bay Area. I was just saying that the figures others were reporting were overly pessimistic.
