"Why Move to Vegass?"

To get 2000 miles away from Podunk, MI

That whole no income tax would be enough to make anyone move.

110 degree dry heat is fine, you just jump in the pool every 15 minutes, then jump out and lay beside the pool for 15 minutes, then repeat.... cools off outside at night and a/c works great inside

You don't need to move there to do that.

Yes, you do. In Nevada, the corporate veil has only been pierced for fraud, which is NOT the case in other states.

No, you do not.

You can easily incorporate in Nevada and not have to move here.

Like speeding. Do they really have time to mess with that? How fast do you have to be going over the speed limit to get their attention?

15, 20.
during peak times they are out in the throughways and i always see someone pulled over like everyday.

i have gone 10 or a little more and have not had a problem. i did get pulled over going 95 in a 75.

In comparison, this past summer we had temps hit 105 a few days where I was living in S.C. It felt a lot hotter to me than it did at 120 here in Vegas over the summer.

I'm just one of those people that likes it hot. My reasoning for not using air conditioning is that if I use it then my body will adjust to the airconditioned temperature. So if I'm in a buildiing that is 75 degrees...my body will acclimate itself to that temp. Then when I walk outside in 120 degrees...I melt. But if my body is already acclimated to the heat, then it's not so bad when I go outside.

I used to amaze people when I lived in Ft. Lauderdale because I simply lived without running an airconditioner during the day. They would all be sweating their asses off everytime they walked outside...but I'd be standing there in a black leather jacket in 100 degree balmy, muggy weather and be perfectly comfortable.

I do admit to cranking the AC at night when I go to sleep though. Better to hibernate that way. :)


thats what i do. i sit up here with my computers topless working with no AC - even in the summer. this way i can walk to my truck, hike in the desert, and drive with my windows down and not have a problem. i dont pick up many chicks, but at least i am comfortable ;)

when i went to NY in the summer of 06 it was so hot (80f) humid (65%) it felt like i was in a shower room. i did not like it at all. and to think i spent 25 years there. wtf was i thinking!

I could have sworn that I was doing it with no problems.

Not sure really...

Wow...talk about ignorant comments.

1. We're webmasters. We work in the day, inside of air conditioned buildings. Who cares about the heat? When we are outside, it's a dry heat, and the day can be spent by the pool relaxing or at the lake in a boat or on Jet Skis.

2. The only place where crime is bad is in the inner city, as it is with any other place. However, I live in an amazing neighborhood, I know all my neighbors, and going to the store at 3am or to an ATM isn't a worry. Of any big city, I feel the safest by far. Just stay in the suburbs, and you're fine.

3. How is the cost of living higher here than anywhere else? If you've been to LA, NY or any other large cities, you'll really find out what high prices are. As people have said, locals stay far away from the strip. Of course everything is inflated on the strip. It's a tourist trap.

I am a Vegas native and I can honestly say that I don't ever see myself leaving. I have spent long durations in other cities, and in my eyex, none compare.

I love the tax benefits, the 24 hour convenience, the fact that friends love to come here to visit, that most bands/tours stop through here, that the cost of living is low, that people have jobs here (that helps keep the crime rate lower), that snowboarding is about an hour away as is the lake in the summer. Aside from all of that, the traffic is not bad and we're not far at all from LA if I feel like a beach getaway.

I'd move there for the tax reasons, but I couldn't stand how fucking cold it gets. Screw that. Bitter cold at night in the winter. I love my Palm Springs weather. Nice dry heat. Never gets too cold (Vegas), and no monsoon season (Arizona). I'm sure after my first big earth quake I'll be in Vegas or AZ within a week, but until then.... :321GFY

:winkwink:

We live in a climate controlled world, so I'll save the money that I would pay in taxes every year to be your neighbor and really appreciate the beauty of central heating/air.

you want to overdose, at the same time going out with a bang.

On incorporating in Nevada...I owned companies for 10 years that were incorporated in Nevada. I bought the big package that gave us a mailing address in Carson City, a "board room" for "meetings" and even minutes of those "meetings" as well as a mailing address and a 24 hour a day 800 number.

I still had to pay state taxes and corporate taxes every year that I lived in S.C.

My "core" was located there. All of my banking was there. Hell, I lived there. I couldn't find one single accountant who would tell me that I could get any of the tax breaks of being incorporated in Nevada...unless I actually physically moved my company here and wrote checks from a bank here.

And since my Payroll service and my accountant and my bank and my actual mailing address where I received all my checks was all located in South Carolina...it was a "no go".

But NOW I can have all of those benefits! :)

I don't know...maybe if you form a corp and only have a single stream of income. But for me with hundreds of checks coming in from different affiliate programs and employess to pay....it just didn't work that way.

That's right.

I remember seeing cars covered in snow on the outskirts of town.

I have pictures of a friend's place and car in Henderson covered in snow somewhere on an external HD.

Granted I still have to pay tax to the CA EDD, but I don't have any of ther messy paperwork I would have if incorporated here.
