Oh, one thing. I live in Nevada (resident, homeowner, etc) and do not pay state income taxes. I have a friend that SAYS (non-resident, non-homeowner) he lives in Nevada and evades state income taxes.
I think he is endangering himself to avoid a pitiful 6k to 10k a year.
Just want you to know I pay my taxes.....usually!...Just
Kidding!

yeah, that makes sense. i'm pretty sure you only have to pay taxes to the state in which you earned the money.
