Your prompt

Translate this comp change into terms I can actually feel.

- Current: $[X]/year salary, [X] hours/week worked
- New offer/raise: $[Y]/year
- Bonus: $[Z], [vested over X years / cash now]
- Extra commute or costs: [details]

Calculate: (1) true hourly rate before and after, (2) after-tax monthly take-home difference, (3) 5-year cumulative difference, (4) what the raise buys in concrete terms (e.g. 'covers your mortgage increase with $X left'). If the numbers say the raise is a pay cut in real terms, say so bluntly.

Paste it into Muse or any assistant. Blank fields stay as [brackets].
