Florida is a scam. But my parents like the lack of 1) winter 2) income tax -- nm - ty97 Jul 6, 07:16 18
- do retirees have income to tax ? -- nm - decline Jul 6, 07:19 2
  - Most of their retirement isn't in Roth accounts, so yes. - ty97 Jul 6, 07:22

- Tik Tok is telling me that home insurnace has tripled in price and companies are pulling out all together. And the insurance board is hiding these - Pippy Quintas Jul 6, 07:19 1
  - My parents are inland (east of I-75 a few miles) but some others (West of US-41) here, including people we know, are experiencing that. -- nm - ty97 Jul 6, 07:20

  - It's nice not to have to file state tax, but yeah, we make up for it in sales tax. -- nm - Dark Callisto 🦊 Jul 6, 07:25 1
    - And taxes that don't exist for some of us. -- nm - Krusty Jul 6, 07:28
  - But it sounds nice doesn't it? - ty97 Jul 6, 07:19 9
    - It doesn't as I like the things that taxes pay for like sanitation picking up my garbage three days a week. -- nm - Krusty Jul 6, 07:20 8
      - Three days a week? Man I'm getting ripped off. -- nm - sycor Jul 6, 07:21 7
        
        For me they come on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Also, every day is bulk garbage day. Sadly, they haven't started e-waste pickup again so we have - Krusty Jul 6, 07:27 5

        I have to bring it to the curb so I know my days. I assume you have a garbage room and don't have to bring it out yourself so it doesn't - Krusty Jul 6, 07:30 3
        
        Yeah, we have a garbage room. I chat with the guy who puts it out sometimes. Building got ticketed not long ago for putting it out before 8pm. -- (edited) - ty97 Jul 6, 07:37 2
        
        People suck. The building should speak with the people that don't separate their garbage and let them know if they get a ticket it's going to them. - Krusty Jul 6, 07:42 1
        
        Heard our super talking with the leasing agent for the building last week before I left town. Sounded liked they were going to put reminder signs up. - ty97 Jul 6, 07:44
        
        Our places are small! We have nowhere to store a week of garbage and recycling! - ty97 Jul 6, 07:23
