Everything Has a Way of Working Out

I received my formal job offer today. The money was more than I expected. For all the time I spent worrying about money and trading in 15 years experience for a huge question mark, I will be starting out right where I left off. There are performance bonuses and a full range of benefits. I am in disbelief- all this, and while making a huge career change.

Someone up there must really like us.

That house will come sooner than you thought. Money somehow makes it allt he easier sometimes if not most often sadly to say.

Congrats, just remember the taxes will take away around 40%, still better than Denmark where it would have been at least 50%.

I think by the time I factored in FICA, all the tax withholding, my share of medical and disability insurance coverage, I was probably in the 40% ballpark living in MN.

Still, this is a high tax nation- no question about it.
