Re: your cost of living (NY sucks)post, could you give a very general idea of what type of lifestyle a single older male, let's say 60 or so, could have on 50, 100, or 150 K per year? Is US income taxed in any way? It might be simpler to compare what 100k lifestyle in NY is like compared to 100k in SD etc. Just curious, if it's not too much trouble. - Thanks - DW
