One thing good about Ms is that after age 65 you dont have homestead taxes any more up to a certain amount of acres attaches to your home, have to still pay taxes on the acreage above the allotted amount for homestead and any not attached to your homestead.
Life exspectancy is getting higher and higher, not good as far as medical expenses, old folks need a LOT of maintenance, just the facts.
