The quick answer
$18 an hour is $37,440 a year working full-time (40 hours × 52 weeks = 2,080 hours). Monthly that's $3,120, biweekly $1,440, weekly $720, and one 8-hour day pays $144.
With steady overtime
Overtime hours pay 1.5× under the FLSA: at $18 that's $27 an OT hour. Five OT hours a week adds $7,020 a year — total $44,460. Work the full math (weekly thresholds, double time) in the calculadora de horas extra.
Where $18 sits
Against the federal minimum wage of $7.25, $18 is 2.5×. Full-time it equals 75% of a $50,000 salary — below that common benchmark. State minimums, cost of living, and benefits decide whether it's comfortable; the arithmetic above is the objective part.
Take-home is a separate question — taxes take roughly 15–25% at this level, varying by state and filing status. Start from $720 a week in the calculadora de nómina.
