Dude(?), you’re seriously mixing things up. It’s not Switzerland and there are no 18% taxes in Germany. Stop spreading all this nonsense. Calculation for Bavaria with 2 kids, 100k and Steuerklasse 3. Every month:
Brutto. 8.333,33 €
Netto 5.581,90 €
There is shitton mandatory insurances and payments. Income tax alone does not really matter. Rundfunkgebühr is very real tax and can’t be avoided.
Edit: sorry, I am rude. But downplaying all the so called insurances, that must be paid from salary is not nice. They must be paid in full and can’t be avoided. I would love to decide about my retirement by myself instead of funding current retirees.
