Reply to This is my first year owning a car how do car taxes work? Do they just mail you a form once a year? And how much is it typically? by _camnoble_

When you get the bill, which is sometimes in July, you have 30 days to pay it so don't worry if it is at or near the due date. If it is over a couple hundred they split it in half so you pay half now then half January 1st.

After you get your first bill, and know what you will have to pay, I'd recommend having a savings for the next one so you aren't scrambling when you get the bill.

You do realize that employers don't need to tell you why they aren't hiring you, right? If I have a job opening and 10 people apply, I'm not calling the other 9 with a specific reason why they aren't hired.

Reply to comment by CTMQ_ in Relocating to CT from CA by a-sillylittlegoose

Well we are top 10 most expensive, so quit your whining about whining. It is more expensive compared to 40+ other states. And it's tiny. Traffic is what it is, never really hear people bitch about that, the driving, yes. The best thing about living here is the weather. If you're like me , middle class rural small business owner, we're pretty much just ghosts. People from outside of New England don't even really think normal middle class people live here. You mention you're from CT, they're like damn, you must be loaded.

We're known for very wealthy people who work in and vacation from NYC, giant mega insurance corps, elite private prep schools and Yale, and women's college hoops. So since none of that rich people stuff applies to me personally or most of us normal people, I stand by my statement, best part is the weather. I've been here my whole life ,47 years, so it's a solid observation. Fact is more people are still moving out, typically to NC and FL, than moving in. Which is a product of the high cost of living.
