Default Re: What Your Job Benefits Are Really Worth

Quote:
you may wrinkle your nose at that 7.65 percent deduction on your pay stub. But don't forget that for every cent you pay, your employer matches it. That means if you're earning $42,000 annually, your employer is paying an extra $3,200 a year on your behalf. Granted, there is a lot of uncertainty about the future of these programs -- but at the very least, they're helping to take care of your parents so you don't have to.
My parents are dead. I'm taking care of somebody else's parents ... oh joy.

I feel ill when I look at the ridiculous deductions. Why should I pay for medicine for others? I pay for my own.
