Trying to choose between two associate job offers—one W-2, one 1099? Before you chase the higher rate, let’s talk about what actually matters: your after-tax income.

From total income and deductible expenses to benefits access, business setup headaches, risk tolerance, and even your long-term goals—this is a deep dive into how each structure impacts your real take-home pay.

You’ll also learn why being asked to form an LLC might be a red flag, and what to watch out for in state laws. We will give you access to our free compensation comparison spreadsheet to plug in your own numbers. 

Don’t go in blind. Listen, learn, and walk into your next job offer with clarity and confidence.
