Where are you moving from? I work for a company that has a base in NJ. I wouldn't move there if they doubled my salary.  Newark is an absolute dump.

America was cool years ago when the illusion worked. But outside of being rich in New York, it's a disaster. Then there is the fact that being rich anywhere is great, so why New York? You're not rich, you're not living in New York. But if this is your dream, then go for it.

I wouldn't be so sure on the not rich part.

NY is good for me and my gf because we're both in finance. You're right, I wouldn't want to raise a family there, and that's not my plan. This is a couple of years thing. Maybe (hopefully) somewhere else in the US after, maybe another country entirely.

We're not in Newark, never been there.
