Do you plan to retire in any of these places?

Retirement should be your golden years. This is the perfect time to relax, follow your passions, and simply savor the life you worked so hard to build. But there is a factor that matters very much and that can make the difference between a dream and a nightmare. The place you live in.

    There is no excuse for State in the Union to tax Americans to this extentt, especially, retiree’s. This is shameful conduct by our Representatives not to look after our most precious Americans, babies and seniors.
