Yeah, move to Florida where your business could disappear completely...
Huge sinkhole swallows homes in Florida
Yeah, thankfully, we don't have to worry about earthquakes and falling into the Pacific ocean. Or brush fires. Or mud slides.
Or wall-to-wall people EVERY place you go and EVERY thing you do. I've been there. I know.
And the cost of living in California? Stupid. Beyond stupid
My boy's in-laws came down (from the People's Republic) and were flattened by the house he just bought for $200k (he did kinda steal it )
They make twice as much money as he does, a fact they like to remind he and his wife of, but they live like shit.
Know why? Because the house my boy got for $200k you couldn't TOUCH in Taxachusetts (where they're from) for less than half a million. If that. Likely more than that.
And while his Property taxes are $2,500 a year, their taxes (on a house that doesn't compare, it's a cracker box) in the People's Republic are over $6,000 a year on a shit box.
Not to mention their Income Taxes. And City Taxes. And general cost of living.
It works out. We don't make as much money as people in some other high-end States, (he's only making around 75k) but we live better.
A LOT better.
I've lived in both Florida and California. You can have your sinkholes, tornadoes, hurricanes, and humidity. I'll take CA any day over Florida.
