Guy on reddit: "I'm 27M, $14mm net worth, looking for a city to live in. City must have:
-Good weather
-Safe
-Low capital gains tax"
Imagine being on track for $100mm+ by breathing oxygen and, of all your options in life, you decide on TAXES as a top criteria for where to live

There are 2 groups who make decisions based on taxes that I find incomprehensible
1. Low earners. I remember a guy making $14/hour in TX telling me I was dumb for voting democrat because "they'll raise taxes"
Buddy...they want my tax $, not yours. And they should raise my taxes

2. The rich! OK, you're a multi-millionaire...you can live anywhere. You make 8% returns with capital-gains advantages. You literally cannot spend it all
Of all the things you can do in your life, what guides you?
HOW LITTLE YOU CAN PAY IN TAXES?
FUCKING GET AN IMAGINATION

If Reddit guy wants to live in San Jose or Dallas, great!
But why would taxes be in your top 3, 5, or 10 criteria?
This dude will have HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN HIS LIFETIME
This is the predictable endpoint of people who have been taught that "taxes are evil"
