I have been of legal working age for 27 years, but haven't worked all that time for various reasons. A project I'm working on involves finding out how much I could've, would've, should've made by now.
Anyone know an easy way to figure this out? Thanks. Mikilikes

Yes. Just use excel or another spreadsheet program. Put in your initial starting pay and multiply that every year by the anticipated pay increase including any bonuses.

27 years is your potential earnings period. Add up your employed time- lets say it was 13 years, 6 months, as your actual earning period. Compare the two time factors by making them a fraction with the actual work time over the potential time. This forms a percentage. In this example, it is 1/2- the worked time is 50% of the potential, thus the earnings you have made are only 50% of what you could have made if you worked the entire potential period. You would have made twice as much.....
