This Real-Time Calculator Shows How Long It Takes You to Earn Things


If you’ve ever wondered how much time it takes for you to earn enough to buy a burger, TV, or even a home on your current salary, this calculator shows you in real-time.

The calculator, from Retale, makes it easy to see the purchasing power of your occupation compared to other occupations like surgeons, web developers, and construction workers. Everything is done in real-time, so you can see your salary slowly ticking upward as time goes on. Below your current earnings over time you’ll see how long it takes for you to earn enough to buy a burger, a pair of shoes, a TV, a new car, and a decent home. While this calculator doesn’t break things down as well as others do in certain aspects, it can be pretty eye-opening to see how much money some jobs bring in and how long you have to wait just to buy a nice pair of shoes.
