Having a stable job for life, or living in NY and trying to save to get out is another. And don't bother with other states. They are either red neck or like the UK but much worse, with higher homeless, no public hospitals, terrible public schools, and massive amounts of racism. |
We already own a property, no mortgage. So the number one cost concern with that region is taken care of. Food costs are relatively inexpensive to what I'm used to. Taxes bite harder than Hong Kong, that's for sure. But, again, that's on balance better off than taxes in the UK.
Public hospitals? Bah, that's the shit why I left the UK in the first place. But, anyway, not a politics discussion.
You seem to have missed the part in the post you quoted me on where I said I lived in Hong Kong. The most expensive city in the world, with one of the largest income gaps, and also happens to be measured as one of the most racist places in the world. Those aren't factors that really matter on my scale of preferences.
