This calculator compares what happens when dues money is given to the union versus investing that same dues money in an investment account of your choice.
At first glance, union dues may not seem that unreasonable.
That is, until you start to add them up month after month, and year after year. It's a lot more money than you may think.
Especially when you add to the dues money already paid and the returns you could have earned by putting your money into an investment for the future. As you will see, this money could go a long way towards your mortgage, children's education, retirement, etc.
Take a look at how much you could have earned over the years if you, instead of paying union dues, and invested that money instead.
