"I moved my primary residence from Silicon Valley to Seattle"
Hmm, that's very specific wording there. In my world, filled with tax advisors and lawyers, this translates to "I'm trying to avoid paying California state income tax on capital gains I will accrue in the near future."

- ojbyrne 16y agoWhich should give it some urgency as WA has a state income tax on the ballot this fall.
- qq66 16y agoWouldn't he have to be living in WA for a year for that to take effect?
- riffer 16y agoState income taxes are generally pro-rated on the number of days in the calendar year. The only place I've really seen the one year clock is just as something universities made up to keep their tuition price discrimination effective.

- macrael 16y agoIs this guy phishing? Why the link to hn.NET? Is that a sanctioned mirror? Why would I need to login again? Likely an honest mistake, but what is news.ycombinator.net anyway?
- staunch 16y agoHah! Weird. No idea how I got a .net link. Fortunately ycombiantor.net is owned by Paul Graham and news.ycombinator.net points to the same IP as news.ycombinator.com You would need to login again because your cookie was set for .com not .net.
