Salary Timer

Contributed by mm | August 17, 2004 09:56 AM PST



How does your income compare to, say, Jay Leno's? Salary Timer from salary.com gives you the most vivid comparison.

When I put in my salary from my office job, and click the "Run It!" button, the timer starts to show my earnings second by second compared to Jay's. I'm earning one cent or two every second, and Jay? $2.72 per second. What a sharp difference!

Or, if you are tired of thinking in dollar terms, try the Burg-o-Meter at the bottom right corner of the same page. You can now compete with your favorite star in terms of Big Macs, VW New Bettles or Barbie Dolls. Jay Leno may need to have a large stomach -- he can earn a big mac every second!
