contract vs full time

[Guest.Visitor]

I am on a contract at 45.00 per hour. What would I have to earn full time with benefits to equal about the 90k per year.

I have to disagree with Chris. I was paying $600 a month for a family of 3. When I looked at other insurances Blue Cross was in the range of 575 to 1,000 depending on what I wanted. If you are not on a group plan you have to pay for every little option (i.e E/R coverage, Inpatient, Outpatient Services, Rx, etc). One offer came in at approximately 1,500 per month with a 1,000 deductable. So, the estimate in my opinion is a little low. I would estimate 700 for insurance coverage.
