Yes, you are. Why should we put effort to find the amount of your taxes and do the calculations for you. If you want to know so bad, figure it out yourself. Or just wait until you get paid, it's that simple.

A little over five dollars. Not 100% though.

OK so you'll make approx. 125$ per month (rounding up)...
Social security will take off 6.2% (-7.75$) and medicare will take off 1.45% (1.81$).

However, income tax depends entirely on your tax bracket, it could be anywhere from 10%-60%... Go to google and figure out where you would fall under.

Sorry to double post, I meant 125 per week, not month.

Does it matter? You'll get all of the money that gets put it into taxes back, if you filed correctly.

Hell, back when I started working minimum wage was $5.85. Wish I could have started out around $7 something.

[ixintro]

Shit, minimum wage where I live is $7.65, those $.30 make a BIG difference.

Technically, minimum wage never goes up in value... It is raised and lowered to match several factors: Cost of living in the county/city, employment rate, crime rate (seriously), and value of the currency. So as you can see, minimum wage could be less in one state than it is in another, and also the value of the dollar back when you were working minimum wage may have been higher than it is today.
