i just never volunteered for or asked for over time. but i never stopped or topped at 40k.....that's just insane......earn as much now as you can at your regular pay, without overtime, and secure a much higher SS income when you retire.....Well as much as I complain there is a very calculated "reason" why I dont exactly "strive" 2 break 40k .....
The "Above" aint enough 2 be worthwile its MORE HOURS to Pay in TAXES
Aint enough to GAIN...
Often about Summer Time actually QUIT whatever Job I have and pick up again about Fall
I was going to guess it was because you didn't want to have to pay the ex-wife too much money but it can't be that.Well as much as I complain there is a very calculated "reason" why I dont exactly "strive" 2 break 40k .....

i was reading the SS website..if he is divorced, and she stays single, when he retires. she can still get HALF his SS, (even his disability and of course, when he dies, she gets it all...but she MUST stay single...I was going to guess it was because you didn't want to have to pay the ex-wife too much money but it can't be that.

it's when you work overtime you get taxed more, (on that paycheck) getting nearly half the pay for the hours worked. work 20 OT, pay half in taxes, or paid for 10 hours OT..THAT's not worth it....
I was nt planning on being here past the age of 18 but I made it and quickly reevaluated my life choices.Not really planning on being around at 65...
Then again alot of people say that
Exactly @Mike ....Might be possible, at least in some cases to include gym memberships under health expenses, but I would get the advice of a tax pro before attempting it.
In 2015, I talked with my accountant about something similar for my wife and I. She was doing rehab after surgery for a bike accident that destroyed her ankle. I was doing rehab for a heart attack.Might be possible, at least in some cases to include gym memberships under health expenses, but I would get the advice of a tax pro before attempting it.
the ex still gets it, even if you remarry..the new wife gets screwed......Not really planning on being around at 65...
