Jeff Bezos announced he is moving from Seattle to Miami, in part to be close to his parents. Moving from Washington state to Florida could save Bezos a yachtload in taxes. Now, he's off to Miami where there's no capital gains tax and zero state income tax. They don't worry too much about income tax, but they do focus a lot on capital gains tax. Those holdings will probably be exposed to capital gains tax, too.
