people who make $7.25 are taxed on that money and then pay their bills with what is left afterward. you are saying you make $8.90 per hour AFTER taxes, lights, water, etc. are paid.

not too shabby.
Actually, I would assume that the net amount stated would be after the business expenses, not personal expenses. Only a percentage of household items and utilities are deductible expenses to the daycare, not the entire amount of household expenses. $8.90 an hour is not a lot of money (at least where I live) - I saw the other day in the paper that a local convenience store is hiring at $10 an hour.
