For My Fellow Buckeyes:

Hey! Who knew????

This is a little bit of a thread hijack, but I just had to share it with those of you here in this thread with the Ohio connection. This article is from Forbes and for some reason, the writer seems to think Ohio is a wonderful place to retire?????? Actually, it says the Columbus area which is quite nice, but I never thought of it as a retirement dream.

I have never heard any sunshine-seeking Buckeyes whining around and saying, "Why-O, why-O, why-O did I ever leave Ohio where, not only could I shovel snow, but I could pay and pay and pay that state income tax?"

So anyway, here's the article from Forbes. Of course, it gives the reasons for the ranking. It says that retirees need jobs in the economic downturn. I thought Ohio was having job problems.

So what's this all about? Is it, "Hang on, Sloopy, you might be in the right state after all"???????

Who knew????
