No one supports a family on 60k a year. Healthcare alone for a family runs 20k/yr plus simply for insurance



You typically get free insurance when you have a job paying 500k/yr...


Its not free. CFO is very aware of your total cost and its starting to show up on W2's.


that's besides that point? When you quote 500k/yr salary that typically includes perks like insurance. But are we really quibbling about $20k in expenses on a 500k salary? Even if I grant you 80k/yr to run your family that still leaves more than enough for your two porsches.
