"I have never once met a person who moved anywhere primarily because of taxes"

personally I moved to Texas for the skiing

*I was misinformed

I can do my job from anywhere in the USA. Here's how I came to live in Austin:

criterion 1: does this place have state income taxes?

criterion 2: does this place come with warm weather, bitchin' hot rod scene, BBQ, live music, and friends who already live there?

Incidentally, I am today celebrating my 7th anniversary as an official Texan

I'm sure this will come as a terrible disappointment to the many people who want to pay you to live in Austin

I did not "get it," it was thrust upon me by a grateful citizenry
