    " if you think about it like this.. 85K is equal to almost the same thing as 119K... meaning after taxes, you will bring home relatively the same amount.. "

    what the fuck? no. you get taxed only according to the income you receive in each threshold.

    so if you earn $130k and the tax bracket changes at $119k, $119k of your income gets taxed at the lower %, and the rest ($21k) gets taxed at the higher %.

    • that's what I thoughtrandommail
    • HA. No. all of your 130k income is taxed at the higher %.VikingKingEleven
    • Yep.. you are taxed % on full amount.. it's a disaster.. when I passed $120k a year it started feeling pretty much like a robbery.Boz
