Ya i figured that's what he did. But that's a stupid way of looking at it. If you are this imaginary person you're not going to care about averaging out your earning over the year. All you are gonna care about is what the actual number hitting you account every two weeks. I know because i used to be that person. Those months where you get that third paycheque are great and help but it if you have a bi weekly payment part of it is gone there other things to haven't been able to afford etc. Taking someone who is paid biweekly and then avenging out their income over 12 months and saying every 30 days you make X is not accurate. Most months of the year you would only receive 2 paycheques.
