    I’ve heard numerous people complain about getting a raise because they would end up in a higher tax bracket and come out net negative…I don’t think most people understand how tax brackets work.

      I learned about tax brackets when I went up a bracket.

      Self education is seriously lacking for most people.

      Literally just search “how do tax brackets work?”

      Took me 15 min to learn everything I needed to know instead of making a false assumption.
