# Taxes

Every Citizen is taxed a certain amount of money from their balance on a daily basis. Depending on how much you may have, you fall under a bracket to be taxed by a certain percentage. Below you can see a percentage, which represents how much you get taxed in the particular racket, two ranges of money (e.g. $x - $x) showing the money in your balance you must have to fall under this bracket and an amount of money after "max." showing how much you can be taxed at a maximum in these brackets.

Taxes are subjected to change at any time.

## Tax Brackets

### Personal Balance
These rates affect your in-game player balance, viewable by running ``/balance`` in-game.
