Just a smidge over $63k after tax and before gibbs.

The job market over here is shocking.

Lol in Canada 64,000 pounds = $120K CAD which would put you in the 92nd income percentile.

This is equivalent to $85,700 USD, not $63k.

[theodric]

Read it again. $63k after tax and before "gibbs" i.e. government-provided social distributions.

[hdgvhicv]

63k after tax in the us is about 86k before tax, so about the same.

Although in the us you have to pay for healthcare on top of that.

[marysol5]

You pay for a private healthcare plan, and the US government pays tax money to the same healthcare companies to prop up the system.

[loeg]

You're double-counting the individual.
