    Cheap land, conservative values, and low taxes: the siren call for ancient fixed income retirees everywhere.

        Thank you for pointing out my missing quotes! I also mistyped “land” instead of “land that will be useless to future generations”. 🫠

          Oh, I read it as “land that will be useful as SCUBA tour sites for future generations of carnival barkers & the like”, but it’s a very similar spelling, so that’s on me.

      Avoiding taxes is going to bite them in other ways. It’s not the cheap retiree paradise it used to be. Housing is skyrocketing, FL has some of the highest health care costs, insurance for auto and particularly home are getting incredibly expensive, the housing prices climbing mean property taxes are getting more expensive, and we haven’t even got to the rising temperatures, sea levels and worse storms.
