No, you are calculating a different quantity. As I said in my post, the figures are "lifetime net tax rate". Basically, the percentage of income you pay in taxes net of the benefits you receive from the government, over your lifetime. Because of the way SS provides spousal benefits, the non-working spouse will get a very large benefit for not working, and only a slightly higher benefit for working. If you need more detail, let me know and I'll type something up this weekend. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
