As long as you keep it at 40... I'd probably be happy with salary too if I worked a 40 hr per week job.
I averaged 58 hrs a week for 2012 so working for salary wouldn't be a good idea in my case. I'd lose all my gravy money.
I know salary has the perk of getting paid while not at work but I don't miss enough time to care about that. That being said I don't see any real benefit to a salaried job.
To each their own...
I rarely keep it under 40 hours a week. But that is built in to my base pay. So I get it no matter what. And as others have pointed out, I have a lot of flexibility. Need a few hours for an appointment, no problem. The paid time off doesn't hurt either.
Why I did I bring home more money after taxes when I was paid on the 15th and 30th
But now that I get paid bi-weekly I bring home less money after taxes with the same exact salary?
I used to think getting paid semi-monthly was a bad thing but maybe not so much anymore
Um, you seriously could not figure this out for yourself? Did you not realize that there are 14 days in 2 weeks instead of 15?
I like getting paid bi-weekly. My budget (mortgage, house account, savings, etc.) is based on 2 paychecks, so that third one twice a year is like a bonus.

I get paid weekly, and I base my budget on the 4 week months...love the ones with 5. They are like a bonus.
So, now savings and discussing savings is nonsense?
He said 99% of employed people in america should have 6 months worth of savings and I said I refuse to respond because it's ridiculous.
