Take the Fairly Odd Salary Survey! (FOSS)
The Fairly Odd Salary Survey was designed to look at your salary in a new light. FOSS puts a spin on what it takes to live and survive on your current salary. It may also point out a few ways you can save time and money. So take a few minutes to save a few minutes and take the salary survey. The survey is anonymous and your final score will be averaged with others if you would like to give an "average FOSS score." We will not use your information for any other purpose. The Fairly Odd Salary Survey is not a traditional salary survey where you find out how much you can make with your skills. It is more of a health score related to your existing salary. Your score may encourage you to pep up your resume and start looking for a new career with a better salary. A better salary can better your FOSS score and therefore save you time. Want to find out how much time you spend each month just to live? Just take the Fairly Odd Salary Survey! Fill in the blanks and click the "score" button. We'll give you a detailed report of how much time you spend on everyday living expenses. Your score equates to the total number of hours in an 8 hour work day that you must work just to break even on your living expenses. For instance; if you score an 8 or more then you might want to think about how you can reduce your living expenses, get a raise, work more hours, or find a better paying job. The ideal score would be less than 8. This means that a portion of hours that you work goes into savings. You are "saving time" which translates to saving money. A healthy score is 7.2 or less. This means that you are saving at least 10% of your income which again means that you are saving 10% of your time. Another way to think about this is: "saving your time now means that you can spend it later." Let's say that you save 1 hour per day for 20 years (based on a 5 day / 40 hour work week.) That equates to 5200 hours. Even if you make $7.00 per hour during those 20 years without a raise, this amounts to $36,400 just for saving an hour a day! If you get a raise each year of 3% during that 20 years your 1 hour per day savings amounts to $48,904. If you had invested that 1 hour per day savings and received even a measly 2% interest rate this 1 hour savings would be worth $59,435 after 20 years. Now just think if you had saved even more time! Or; made more, got better raises, got a better interest rate, etc.
