    I earn more than 34,600, so I get taxed 40% on my salary?
    You only get tax at 40% on your taxable income above 34'600. If your tax allowance was, for example, 4'000, then everything above that, up to 38'600 (=4'000+34'600) is taxed at the base rate, and everything over that is taxed at the higher rate (40%).
