This math doesn't add up 78k is 6.5/mo?

It doesn’t. They just didn’t read the actual link.

That’s $2194 semi monthly. So $4400 a month.

The calculator defaults to semi-monthly and I think the original commenter didn't change it. Also, it defaults to your current location so the take-home will be different for everyone running the calculator (because taxes). $78k is $6500 a month BEFORE TAXES.
