Part of your income now reaches the 22% federal bracket. Because brackets are marginal, only the dollars inside that bracket are taxed at 22% — your average (effective) rate stays well below your top rate. Pre-tax retirement contributions are especially efficient at this income because each dollar deferred avoids tax at your highest marginal rate.
