I sent for a PayPal MasterCard prepaid debit card. It is to be to me in 5-10 days.
Aw, horseshit. You can go to WalMart and buy a Bluebird card for $3 right there. Paypal. Jeez.
And no, the dipshit didn't fork over half her check. Not. Even. CLOSE. Assuming she made $8/hr for a 40-hour week, and going to
www.paycheckcity.com, do a little number crunching, and before medical/dental/etc., she'd be looking at taking home about $256.45 a week, for a witholding of $63.55/week. Not $160.
Broken down, she's looking at the following deductions:
Federal $33.07
SS $19.84
Medicare $4.64
MO state tax $6.00
Then consider at the end of the year she'll be getting all her federal back, plus about $4-5K on top of that thanks to EIC. Yeah, real broke up about it, toots.
Just for the hell of it, I checked the figures using my information as a guide. Dead on.
