I estimated wrong. My check went up $178. Still plan to route $150 to Thrift, and I will go wild with the balance đŸ’ƒđŸ»đŸ”„!

About $100. I'm sure the hike in my insurance didn't help.

It was like an additional $200. not bad but probably wiped out by increases in health insurance anyway

Also won’t see it until Saturday and am curious to see if it works out to more or less than my last two pay periods which were above the SS cap for the first time in my career.
