HHI 197K
Take home is about $8650 if I do 2 times paycheck, and about $9400 accounting for the two extra paychecks per year.

That's after taxes, health insurance, flex dependent and health care accounts and retirement contributions (one of us contributes 13% of salary to retirement, and the other does 10%).

HHI $142K
Take home $6350

That's after taxes, insurance, and maxing out 401K.

Judging from this thread, and the contributions to it, most Washingtonians appear to be overpaid and underworked.

This. HHI: $200K; take home: $9400 (for now. it will go up once I start paying for SS, and other taxes in January).

100k
Paystub x2 is 4500. I pay for our insurance and health flex and don't max the 401k (I should though)

$205K

Take home $11K (2nd half of year...1st half is less due to FICA)

2 kids

maxed out 401K

170k HHI
Take home is 8500, maxing out one 401k

HHI is $245K (well, a bit less this year due to furloughs).

Take home is ~$11K if I just do 2x paycheck, ~12K if I account for the extra 2 paychecks a year.

HHI: 65k
Family size- couple with one dd
Take home after taxes/insurance: Just a hair under 4k

Anonymous wrote:$309k/$15k

not sure if everyone is just using paystub x 2. I count monthly as paystub x 26 payperiods / 12 months since two months have an extra amount...

also it can be misleading as some over withhold to get refunds, in addition to differences in retirement contribution, insurance, etc.

This is OP. I just did paystub x 2 because I was a bit too lazy to do the math. And I thought of asking for those other factors but I thought it might be sort of annoying for people to input all that personal information. On average I still thought it would be pretty interesting information.

$72K/$2800.

Max 401K and dependent care FSA (but had to increase the per-check withholding this year because of unpaid maternity leave).

165K

Take home - about 8200

Insurance is free, DH deducts 10% for 401k, I deduct 0 bc I get 16% contribution from my employer

Who do you work for?!?!
