Gross Earning Breakdown
‘Tis the tax season and my notorious analytical habit couldn’t sleep. Here I present to you my 2008 gross earnings breakdown:
Apparently, in this past calendar year I worked nights and days:
- Through April 12th (just in time!) to pay my taxes – to feed the poor, the old, the super rich, and the countries we destroy
- Then through end of June to save up for the far distant future (if I hadn’t done this, I would’ve been working through May just to feed more poor and the super rich)
- Then the entire summer through September 9th so I wouldn’t be homeless
- Another week so I could pay for the company-subsidized healthcare and shitty Subway rides
- Just as the weather started to get cold, I could finally start to think about feeding and clothing myself, buy a PS3 or otherwise have a life
What a depressing view of the reality?! Technically I haven’t worked enough this year to cover my 2009 income taxes yet! Let’s not even mention the $$$ that went into and disappeared right from my 401(k).
Hurray!
once we combine our incomes, it will be better…
At least you aren’t negative! After spending some time doing my own personal calculations, I’ve been overspending about $500 per month the whole year. No wonder I get poorer…
