Will your shifts cover your rent?
Copy the amounts from your game. We'll do the maths. No fixed salaries, no account and no real-money conversion.
Your weekly plan
Enter your numbers to see the weekly surplus, rent share and shifts needed to cover your plan.
No numbers are prefilled. Estimates only become useful when they match your own game.
after weekly bills and your reserve
₦ here means fictional Game Naira. A surplus is not guaranteed earnings.
The calculation, in plain sight
- Weekly income = take-home pay per shift × shifts per week.
- Weekly bills = rent + loan repayment + other weekly costs.
- Weekly surplus = income − bills − your reserve target.
- Break-even shifts = (bills + reserve) ÷ pay per shift, rounded up to a whole shift.
- Cash after immediate costs = current balance − costs and arrears due now.
Limits of the estimate
Use the same game currency and a one-week period throughout. If the game shows a different billing interval, convert it before entering. Do not put a gross wage into a take-home field without accounting for deductions.
The tool does not model missed shifts, promotions, changing policies, taxes, bonuses, random events or new purchases. Include the effect of deductions in your pay input. One-time costs affect today's cash only; they are not subtracted again from weekly surplus. There is no connection to your game account.
To compare jobs or homes, note one result, change the relevant inputs and calculate again. Zero pay with positive bills has no finite break-even shift count; zero income also makes a rent-to-income percentage undefined.
