RE: Oracle Financials Sys Admin. Needed in South Carolina

Try out the Silicon valley, people! An *old* 3 bedroom townhome will start around 380/400k, with new ones going all the way upto the high 400s. *Not-new* single family homes start around 500s.... And add the 8% sales tax as well as the State Income tax, and your take home packet looks pretty meek. It was a shock for me, not having paid Rent/Utilities/Income Tax for the last 10 years (5 in the mid-east and 5 in Brunei :)

The only bright spot was getting back some tax returns from your friendly IRS! John
