I think you mean spending more than 25000 (on things subject to sales tax), not earning 25000.

Unles you are hordingypur money in the bank or burning it in the backyard, you are going to buy something that has the tax.

I think you must discount the taxes aplied directly to your salary.

You can also go abroad in the holidays, or perhaps buy online from another state (but they may close the "loophole").
