Ways to Increase Your Take-Home

📈

A $5,000 401(k) contribution saves $2,078/yr in taxes

If you're married, filing jointly gives you a $32,200 standard deduction (vs $16,100 single) and wider tax brackets. This would add $815/month to your take-home.

🗺️

States like Texas and Florida have no state income tax. At your salary, moving to Texas would mean $11,350/year more take-home — $946/month — with no change to your gross salary.
