What the receipt means.

Stated salary / hourly
What your offer letter says. Hourly is salary ÷ the hours you're officially paid for.
Total hrs given / wk
Every hour your job actually takes: hours worked (incl. evenings and weekends) + commute + unpaid recovery time on the couch. Yours: 65.8 hrs.
Work tax / yr
Money you spend only because you have this job: gas or transit, work clothes, lunches and coffees out.
Real hourly wage
Your salary minus the work tax, divided by all the hours you really give. This is what an hour of your life is selling for.
Freedom number
The monthly income you'd need from other work to pay your bills without touching savings — after the job-only costs disappear.
Runway if you quit
How long your savings would last if you quit today, at that bare-bones spending. Yours: about 182 days.
