New Jersey's wealthiest man may be making a common Northeast move: a relocation to the tax-friendly state of Florida, a report says.
According to Bloomberg, David Tepper has shifted the base of his Appaloosa Management to the Sunshine State as of Jan. 1 after registering to vote and declaring citizenship in Miami at the end of 2015.
Taxes were reportedly an important part of the 58-year-old's decision, but also, quality-of-life played big part in his choice to move, according to the article.
Tepper has been a resident of the Garden State for more than two decades and has continually appeared on NJ Biz's 50 wealthiest people in New Jersey and Forbes list ranking the world's billionaires. His business was headquartered in Short Hills.
Tepper, who own a home in Livingston and a condo in Miami, has a net worth of $11.4 billion and is the 85th wealthiest person in the world, according to Forbes.

Why would anyone leave a Garden of Eden state?
