It is that time of year, again. Time to pay the tax man.
In the post-Covid world, we can live and work anywhere. If you want to increase your income, consider moving to a state with no, or lower, income tax.
Here are the income taxes by state.
Move from California to Texas and give yourself a 13.3% raise. Or move from New York to Florida and give yourself a 10.9% raise.
And, remember, this is every year so it compounds.
