Career & school

Job offer comparisons, real estate deal take-home, and grade math. 4 free calculators, no signup.

Pricing career & school work honestly

Small numbers with long shadows: a job offer's true value hides in the 401k match and PTO, an agent's commission hides behind splits and fees, and a final grade hides behind weighted categories. These tools dollarize the fine print so you can compare offers and outcomes honestly.

Pricing rules that protect your margin

  • Dollarize every benefit: 401k match, PTO days at your daily rate, bonus probability, and equity at a discount. Salary alone misranks offers.
  • Agents: your split is only the first cut. Desk fees, transaction fees, and tax set-aside decide what a deal actually pays you.
  • Final grade math is just weighted averages. The scary part is not knowing; run the number early and study to the target.
  • Teachers: track classroom spending as it happens. The deduction has a cap, and knowing your total changes what you claim and what you stop buying.

Questions, answered

How do I compare two job offers fairly?
Convert everything to annual dollars: salary, expected bonus, match, PTO value, and insurance cost differences. The comparison tool does the conversion side by side.
What do I need on the final?
Enter your current grade, the final's weight, and your target. The calculator returns the exact score required, or tells you if it is out of reach.
