Depending on your age and how much you can deduct, the switch over can come as "low" as 90k. At 100k you should always be ahead in any case. And that's without counting the social …

Taxes at that income level are around 50%, including ~20k worth of social security contributions. You're probably mixing up VAT, advance payments and final balance payments to get …

Fourth option: don't introduce this change at all. It's a debatable stylistic improvement in exchange for a big breaking change that will force your users to go through, update and…
