About the One More Year Quote
Weekly hours are multiplied by 52 and divided by 24 to become whole days; monthly days are multiplied by 12. Each row is rounded to one decimal before the total is added, so the figures on screen add up to the total you see. The wear levels are never converted, weighted or scored - they are listed by name under the day count, in order of severity.
On the Sunday evening when "I'll just tough it out one more year" shows up again, or right after a bonus lands and the year ahead suddenly feels survivable. Every other tool here assumes you are leaving and prices that side. This one prices the option you were about to take for free.
Nowhere. Everything you type stays in this browser's local storage so the quote is still there next time; nothing is sent to a server, nothing goes into analytics, and the wear levels for sleep, body and relationships never leave the page. Clearing your browser data clears the quote.
FAQ
Common questions and answers about this topic.
How do I work out what one more year costs?
Fill in four numbers from your own week and month: overtime hours, commute hours, hours lost to meetings that decide nothing, and rest days that work eats each month. Those become a day count for the year. Then rate sleep, body, relationships and stalled growth on a four-step scale; anything above "unchanged" is listed by name under the bill. Read the two parts together - the days tell you the size, the names tell you what kind of year it is.
Why days instead of money?
Because money is the comparison you have already lost. Salary, bonus and market rate are what every career article, recruiter and spreadsheet already argues about, and staying usually wins that argument - it is the side with the visible number. Days are the thing you cannot earn back and cannot negotiate for. Pricing the year in days also keeps the tool honest across countries: it needs no currency, no tax rules and no local salary data.
Why are sleep and relationships not in the total?
That is deliberate, not an unfinished feature. The moment those become points, the whole page collapses into a single score - and a score is easy to dismiss ("I just had a bad week") in a way an itemised bill is not. There is also no honest exchange rate between "relationships: badly" and a number of days; inventing one would make the total look more precise while making it less true. So they stay listed by name, under the days, unweighted.
If the number is high, does that mean I should quit?
No. The tool has no opinion about your job and deliberately gives no threshold, no verdict score and no recommendation. All it does is stop "staying" from being the option with no price on it. Plenty of people look at a large number and decide the year is still worth it - that is a real answer, and it is a different answer from never having looked. If you want the other side of the comparison, the runway calculator prices leaving.
Where do I get these numbers?
From your own weeks, not from any regulation. The tool deliberately ships no country's statutory hours, holiday tables or overtime rules - it would be wrong somewhere the moment it did. Estimate from a typical week rather than your worst one, and round rather than agonise: the point is the order of magnitude, not two decimal places. If a row does not apply to you, leave it at zero.
Is anything I type here stored or shared?
It is stored only in this browser, and shared with no one. The quote is kept in local storage so it is still there when you come back, but nothing is uploaded, no account is involved, and the sleep, body and relationship ratings are never sent to analytics or put into a shareable card. This tool has no result image and no result link on purpose - some numbers are not for showing anyone. Clear your browser data and the quote is gone.
