I was seriously considering texas because i know people there

Texas is good atm. Need more non commie refugees to texas.

Enjoy it while it’s still Texas. With shit-tons of immigration and Cali residents fleeing to Texas to avoid taxes (and then voting for more taxes, of course), I’m not sure what it’ll be like in a decade.

I’m in Cali, so I can’t wait to get out of here.

I moved from texas to oregon. I hate it more and more every day

I’ll have to move to Massachusetts or New York for grad school and then New York for work, so I won’t be seeing an actual red state for a long time. RIP.

Least there are red refuges in ny

Outside of nyc

Yeah, I’ll be 30 mins north of Manhattan to commute for work on Wall Street, so I doubt I’ll be in red refugee territory, but a guy can dream.

Working on Wall Street....

Look, I’ll at least have a couple years in me before the cocaine-and-stress-induced heart attack.

Btw, Maxine Waters is now the chair of the House Financial Services Committee. So I might be fucked, who knows?

I would go out of my way to find a similar, yet alternative career choice just so that I could avoid that hell hole lol

@Christopher i like the idea of new york but moving from london to new york wouldn't be that much of an upgrade

Oh, 100%. It’d be the same cosmopolitan and metropolitan bullshit.

@Scar It'd be safer lol

Did bug eye cortez get a seat on finance with bernie?

not by much @Fitzydog

@Scar You didn't hear? London has now surpassed the violent crime rate of NYC

I'm considering just picking a state by the best internet and highest wage i can get

I know but it's not that much higher @Fitzydog

Texas right now is best bang for your dollar

Or tell the Atlantic to go fuck itself

International crime stats are always iffy

In comparisons

I’m only moving to NYC since people in my industry make $120-150K starting off at the best firms.

You earn the most for tech jobs in Cali but fuck that it would be like moving from london to an even more cucked version that's somehow even more expensive with shitter internet

As a Cali resident, can confirm that’d be the case

From what I know, London is much worse on all of those things

Maybe not internet

But Cali has fast internet now

>earn more
>pay tons in income, sales, everything tax

Dad works in Silicon Valley, and the pay is great, but he loses most of his income to taxes anyways

Internet is really good and the prices for rent very much differ by how far from central london you get

Silicon Forest then lol

that's another good point @Christopher

>payed less in texas
>keep more for lack of income tax, sales tax exempting rent, utilities, so on

>end up with more money in texas than cali

Oh dont forget cost of living
