Gross earnings are what you are getting paid before any deductions come out (taxes, insurance, social security etc.) If you are getting a 1099 (instead of a W-2) keep in mind that you will have to pay both halves of the Social Security and Medicare tax (known as self-employment tax) which will cost you 15.3% (instead of the 7.65% you pay when you're a W-2 employee)
The amount of your paycheck is your Net earnings.
