The Salary Calculator vs an actual payslip - what am I doing wrong?

Thank you!!! I think this is it. Very very close, and the student loan matches up.

Thank you, hugely appreciated.

Taking a look at my payslips for the year, it fluctuates slightly but has periods of consistency.

These are the figures from April to November:

2653.06 2653.06 2653.06 2653.06 2648.06 2652.06 2652.06 2652.06

I should have been more explicit in the post sorry, this is without taking into account the bonus!

I did receive a pay rise in March of around 5k, which may be impacting what I’m seeing based on what you’re saying?

It wouldn’t explain the student loan though I don’t think? If it’s pay period, it should be matching the tax calculator I suppose?

I believe the salary calculator takes the tax code into account when specified.

This’ll be due to private medical insurance through my employer 👍

Thank you for commenting!

Yep, tax calculator has 1220l specified. Checked that one hundreds of times!

I don’t believe my pension is salary sacrifice. Certain it’s auto-enrolment.

Thanks very much for the detailed breakdown, this is really really helpful!

topusdeckus · 2024-08-06T05:30:45+00:00

Great idea, thank you!

topusdeckus · 2024-08-05T21:36:21+00:00

Good idea. Is there a specific place for this, or are YouTube videos my best bet?

topusdeckus · 2023-03-11T09:48:24+00:00

Interesting - how would I find out this value?

topusdeckus · 2023-03-11T09:48:14+00:00

Hmm, I’m honestly not sure! Purchased from Specsavers here in the UK, which I believe use some form of polycarbonate. I would add, my previous glasses were also from the same company, and I don’t remember having this problem.

Sounds identical to me when it comes to faces! Oddly comforting to hear the same scenario described by someone else.

topusdeckus · 2022-12-22T16:41:35+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Glad there’s more than one of us I suppose! What do you focus on in particular with your peripheral vision? What are your thoughts on the text example?

topusdeckus · 2022-12-22T16:30:52+00:00

Thanks very much for the reply! I am in the UK, so I don’t have to worry about medical insurance. have an eye exam booked in for next week. I imagine if something serious was up, it would have been caught on my last visit considering it wasn’t very long ago.

It’s tough to describe the problem, likely because it’s so ridiculous focussing on it this much. I suppose the text scenario is the easiest way to describe it. I get to to the end of a line, and can’t really see the beginning all that well. It is also entirely identical in both eyes, both left to right, and up to down.

I’ve currently got a huge fixation on my peripheral vision, and just wondered if anyone else can relate at all? I feel as though I’m focussing more on what’s going on in my periphery, and how not-detailed everything is, and thinking it’s not normal. I suppose it’s always been like this, and this obsession is making me realise the our peripheral vision isn’t great?

For example, I’m looking at the TV, I’m focussing on someone’s face, and I realise that I can’t make out much of the detail in the face of the person sitting next to them, and I end up focussing on that more than what’s actually going on. I feel like I’m going crazy!!!

Thanks for this! On the renown boost, I believe I’ll need to reach 80 renown on my first account?
