DETERMINING YOUR SAVINGS POTENTIAL |
| The first step is to establish
what your NET income really is. Most people have no accurate idea of their NET income
because they don't write a check for their taxes (they are taken from you before you
receive your paycheck). The chart below is designed to help you arrive at your actual NET
income. |
|
More important than how much you
make each year is how much is left over for savings at the end of the year. The average
American now works until June 11 of each year just to pay his taxes!
Fill out the chart below to compare the savings potential when working in a tax-free,
expense paid job. |
Use
the net income figure below
