Very good point. I get a yearly ( or is it twice a year?) statement
showing my total compensation package. Wages earned ( I am not salary)
Plus Medical benis etc so the bottom line dollar amount is rather
impressive looking.
But most folks do not think beyond what they can spend. But never
consider what they do NOT have to spend.
Sorta sad in a way.
