Hello!
Total personal finance noobie here. Trying to get on top of my monetary situation and I have, I’m sure, a pretty stupid question.
I’m a waiter in New York City. I’ve noticed on my paycheck that week to week the percent of my paycheck that goes to taxes changes. It ranges anywhere from 25%-30%.
Why the fluctuation? I make almost no cash tips (and full disclosure don’t usually report the little that I do) so credit cards and hourly wage are my only taxable income.
How can I better predict how much of my paycheck will be taken out for tax purposes every week without just waiting for payday to come.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!
