California is only good if you are working class making money for a software house coding websites for Chinese leaded dildo manufacturers and making the cash to outpace the taxes.

How easy is residency fraud in the US? Can you get a PO box in Alaska or some shit and pay taxes there?

>>23747899
you’ll have to try harder than that

>>23747677
why do you need lights in summer? you have sunlight til 9, 10ish. go to bed you degenerate

>>23747605
move to puerto rico during the winters. then you can have 0% capital gains if you stay out of cali for 6 months a year.

>>23748199
that actually sends tempting if i actually make a shit load of cash

if florida ever bcomes less of a pile of shit maybe id move there

>>23748223
if you have to wonder if youll make enough you definitely will not.

>>23748199
Why not just live in Puerto Rico at that point? Same weather, same ass-railing taxes, similar crime rate, same number of spanish speakers.
Puerto Rico doesn't burn every year. That's a plus.

>>23748223
All major American cities are dumps, take your pick and stop being a bitch, you're going to lose 75% of your wealth to rent and taxes so have at it retard

>>23747605
Move to Vegas anon. NO STATE INCOME TAX. Cali is literally a 1 or 2 hour $150.00 - $250.00 plane ride away depending on where you're going. You can visit any time you want to. 11.25 BTC Califag moving to Vegas when overall net worth hits 2.5 million, 1.1 million to go. Believe me bro, you don't want to live in Cali.

>>23747605
Bro, I'm trying to get the FUCK OUT of California, trust me, this place has become a big shithole. Gonna move to Nevada and buy a comfy condo and live a neet life after this bullrun

>>23748556
Vegas is dying, again. It was hit hard during the housing bubble, and it's getting reamed during the chink flu. If you're moving there to retire, and have a lot of saved up, it's probably not a bad idea.

>>23748609
>he lives east of the 405
Kek my sides

>>23748158
I've lived in California my whole life, it DOES NOT start getting dark that late. It's actually getting dark at 5:30pm after daylight savings you fucking faggot

>>23748655

I know. i said i have 1.4 million and heading to Vegas when i have 2.5 million

>>23748712
so like 830 PM on the longest day of the year during daylight savings time in LA. check our latitude geofag this isn't the north pole

>>23748726
I know you said that. I was speaking to anyone else who is thinking of moving there without a nest egg.

>>23747605
>moving to the state everyone is fleeing from
Wew lad gotta get a slice of that good op Cali dream, huh?

>>23747605
Cali is top notch only elites will be left the poor are forced to leave. Eth to 10k EOY

>>23747605
>be Californian
>power gets cut because your grid wasnt maintenanced for half a century

>>23748745
so socal is the whole state? I live in the middle of the country and the sunsets at 10 on the solstice; I'm sure it sets about that time in northern california

>>23747670
The weather is better there though. Here in NY I feel like I complain about the weather no matter what season it is.

>>23748796
>he doesnt have power walls
NGMi

>>23748158
Third world mentality

>>23748801

we never seem to have comfortable weather for very long up here.

>>23748806
Again, third world mentality.

i cant leave cali because it is god tier for /out/fags, is there any other place that has just as nice beaches, forests, mountains, and deserts? alaska? oregon?

Any anons here lived in Long Beach? Moving either there or Dallas next year.

I'll probably join you the taxes are lower than my shitstate so I don't mind

>>23748868
Are you? Thinking the solution to rotting infrastructure is a personal powerbank is so far from how a functional society should work it's absurd. God you yanks are hopeless.

>>23748817
close, I'm a farmer. when the suns up I'm working. during the summer when I have 16 hours days, I ain't got the time or energy to be a degenerate

>>23747605
i travelled to los angeles for work a few times. it's a massive, sprawling, incredibly overpriced shithole. even 1+ hour away in the ghetto shithole suburbs it was still a disgustingly overpriced nigger/spic shithole, where crackhouses cost $400k.

>>23747605
Hey. Somebody's gonna fund the welfare queens in the mooching red states.

Accurate description of american cities

>>23747701
>fuck off retard i dont want to live in rural minnesota

the irony is that cali is just a huge inverted anus for catching (instead of expelling) people that didn't want to live in rural (wherever)

>>23747605
im a californian native. california is not for people like you. california is for old roots with boomer parents who inherited the fallout of the greatest bull run of the century. if you don't already outright own your home you''ll end up being a slave.

>>23747818
Not wanting to work 90hr weeks

>>23749084
Sorry you're a third worlder.

>>23749091

the transients with a plausible niche and a reasonable place to squat do alright too, but the legalization of marijuana is going to erode most of that in short order.

>>23748866
lived no, but best friend did for 5 years and i have spend many a nights partying in LBC over the years. I also grew up in a city that almost directly borders it. What would you like to know? I would definitely take Dallas over Long Beach anon, and i haven't been to Dallas in over 25 years.

>>23748801
Yes but California has fucking fires and earthquakes. My aunt almost got fucking evacuated from her house in Oramge County last week. I mean i guess it depends where in California you intend to move. San Diego seems based, Norcal outside of the Bay Area seems based but its innawoods and like I said fucking wildfires. Orange County seems pretty based but I've never been. The rest of the state is a massive shithole from what I can tell

>>23747605
Anon, I live in CA and I absolutely love it. Born and raised. My advice is do not move here. It’s heckin expensive and there are violent homeless people everywhere. I haven’t left my house since the riots in May. It’s beautiful but it’s so fucked. Also I make about $20 an hour, but it comes out to about $13 after all the taxes, insurance, and fees are taken out lol

>>23749137
Based. Basically wanted to gather opinions on lifestyle vs cost in LBC. It appeals to me because it seems to be the most affordable beach city in SoCal. Why Dallas over LBC? Just because of cost or more?

>>23749237
i have money

>>23749183
Yeah the wildfires are awesome, we had a ball last year that was about two miles wide and rolled over the freeway and killed everyone in its path. Also the big earthquake that’s coming for sure, been feeling tremors lately and haven’t felt one in 10 years or so I can tell it’s moving beneath my feet.

>>23749252
Well come if you want to give it to the government lol they’re even talking about passing a law that you have to pay taxes to CA even if you move away

How much is gas where you’re at? It’s about $3.50 right now

Why do you want to come btw?

>>23749068
Good tacos though.

>>23749252
>i have money
stop larping

>>23749280
i make all my money online most the shit doesnt bother me but i dont care about anything material except cars and houses but i dont have enough for it anyways

>>23749350
Oh Um well I have bad news for you anon CA outlawed all but electric cars by 2025 and the houses are tinnyyyy

I used to live in South Carolina and had my own bathroom now I share one with 4 people and my room half size

>>23749115
lazy nigger desu

>>23749418
yeah i know i dont care

>>23749418
South Carolina sounds like a good alternative to California. They have beaches and mountains. only thing you gotta worry about is hurricanes

>>23749238
>lifestyle
pretty good i'd say. lots of bars, good food, conventions, grand prix yearly, good geography and weather with LA directly north and OC directly east, 5 them parks within in hour or so, very attractive women, and very ethnically mixed. On the other side housing and transportation is ridiculously expensive, lots of gangs in some areas, tons of homeless, crazy taxes, etc. If you make like 80k you can have a good bachelor life in Long Beach, but you definitely can't raise a family on it.
>beach city
locals don't go swimming in the waters around long beach due to it being a major shipping lane for both the LA and Long Beach International Harbors, massive filthy storm runoff drain runoffs coming from LA and North OC, and even homeless people living on the rock Jetty's pissing and shitting in the water. Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, or Bolsa Chica state beach are all cleaner and about 30 minutes away in Orange County.
>Why Dallas over LBC
Because it isn't California, Texas doesn't have a state income tax, and I am certain the cost of living is like 65%-75% of what it would be in Long Beach, especially if you aren't directly in downtown Dallas.

>>23749620
Appreciate all the info. Was planning on either renting in DT Long Beach or buying a condo in DT Dallas (leaning towards the latter mainly because of same thoughts as you).

>mediocre 60k salary currently but six figures in the bank from investments

>>23748726
I just did this...have my btc waiting for the bull run in Vegas. Next year the housing crash starts and Vegas will be ground zero if people are still scarred from covid.

Califags should get the rope. I moved to San Antonio from Costa Mesa. I am earning 3x now with literally no state income tax.

California is beautiful but its for elite fags now.

>>23750092
>l but its for elite
How much net worth would be considered elite in California?

>>23748199
Unironically doing this, but I read that you can’t spend more than a month or so on the mainland, as you risk failing the close connections test by the irs. Also Puerto Rico requires $15k for the program, so depending on your holdings it could be worth it.

>Maryland
>8.5% SALT tax

>>23749900
There isn't going to be a housing crash anon. Especially if biden gets elected and starts importing millions of immigrants. Housing is only getting more expensive due to globalization and chinks buying up real estate with cash.

>>23751193
You don't have to sell then rebuy crypto right? You just get 0% on gains accrued since moving right?

>>23751413
Look up act 60 for individual investors. The part you mentioned, I have yet to find anything conclusive, but since crypto is treated as property, I would imagine selling and buying back immediately would be the best bet.

>>23751413
Also $5k application, $10lk donation, have to live there for 183 days, have to legitimately move there without any ties to the mainland.
