So, as I look at these 68 hour weeks I'm starting to wonder... is it even worth it? According to my math it's not.

Anyone have any good resources on figuring this crap out? After taxes, deducations, etc. it appears that my OT hours would only be worth $13/hr. How the hell does time and a half pay come out to be LESS than your normal hourly wage. I mean seriously.. come on... that's f'd up.
