No, one should not rely on SS but it's a mandatory deduction with a "promise" to be returned so by god I intend on holding them to it. You can't leave it to children so I plan on taking back as much as possible, one way or another.
To earn $75k and only "get credit" for $50k sucks

Fully agree. The way I see it, I’m paying for it so I might as well use it.
Vic Firth Thanks this. -
I wouldnt do it. I had a couple of past companies with that per diem crap, and basically my money was no better, and left me with a very small tax deduction or none.

I was itemizing close to $17k just in meal deductions. That's more than the increase in the new standard deduction. -
My first full quarter with an automatic and 40,000 miles. I got NONE of the modified fuel bonus for the auto's and consequently missed out on top drivers bonus spilt. Anybody getting the full fuel bonus with the auto's?
I was afraid this would be an issue with the different bonus targets for the autos ... company reduces fuel cost AND bonus expenses. Win-win for company, lose-lose for the driver.mitrucker Thanks this. -
I say they need to have separate mpg targets (about .2 mpg lower) for Q4 and Q1 as I think they may have been a bit over-optimistic on the target mpg for the 18's -

Per Diem is only good for the company. They don't have to pay all the payroll taxes now, only a portion. The rest falls onto the driver.
I got screwed 10 years ago, and just last year, paid off the tax bill i had from the irs, because former employer screwed up.
Plus the banks i bank with, do not accept per diem pay earnings, when deciding to loan you money. They only accept whats on the w-2's . They also don't take a letter from the employer, that explains per diem pay. -
