    I once had a check that was $1400, gross was $1900. So how is that true? I claim 0, unless it depends on the state you live in....

    The higher the gross at certain levels the percentage amount the government steals, dramatically increases, you live in FL no income tax for state, so depending on state take another couple hundred off at that amount.

    I claim 1 and pay about 30-40% of the gross. It's not so much which state as how much you make. If I go over say:biggrin_25525:3500.00/week then och it almost 50%.

    Won't get rich in the blue color world. After you make so much you'll start working for a few bucks an hour.
