Welcome to StayingEven.com

We are dedicated to helping you understand how much income growth you need to keep up and get ahead in the U.S. economy.

It is surprisingly hard to find out how much income growth you need to keep up over time. The Consumer Price Index and Social Security Cost of Living Adjustments ("COLAs") systematically understate the income growth you need (see more in About the Index). Staying Even solves this problem by providing and updating the Staying Even Index and Staying Even calculator based upon growth in the per person size of the U.S. economy. Simply put, we help you understand how much income growth you need to maintain and grow your share of the U.S. economic pie. The Index is based upon government-published statistics on U.S. economic and population growth. Explore the Staying Even calculator (directly below) and our site.
