Got promoted to Manager and my new pay after taxes, 401k, and stock deductions is $1500 more a month. I’m shook. And really grateful. I plan to continue saving and investing, but wow I can’t believe it.

What is the % hike

like

About 35%!

likeuplifting

I mean, sounds like you’re stashing 15% of the increase into an ESPP and another chunk (15%?) into 401k. That money is still yours/getting saved. Taxes are probably 30% so that leaves you with only ~40% of your increase going into your net pay although an amount close to that is still going into your pocket that you’re choosing to ignore. Congrats on the promo btw!
